mouth, and the Indians went out and shot
large number of them, and made them their
contribution to the feast. Governor Bradford
says in his history that they were delicious
to eat How fitting 1t is that the bird that Is
the GROWING glory of our Thanksgiving board
should have been the favorite meat of that his
toric first Thanksgiving dinner!
There were, doubtless, onions, beets. pars-
nips cabbage or colewort. squash, and perhaps
other vegetables, for a good variety of seeds
were brought over from Holland. Perhaps
there was succotash, and the Indians must
have made It, for it was something that the
Pilgrim cooks had never heard of before and
we know that they learned later from the In
dams how to make 1t. Now, what did they
have for dessert, wonder? l think they may
have had some sort of pudding with buckle
berries for plums. / doubt If they had much
sweetening for their pudding and pumpkin
pies, as their stock of sugar and molasses was
very limited. Perhaps they had substitute.
There were fine wild grapes in the woods, and
they had doubtless dried store of wild straw
berries, cherries and plums. They surely did
not have any mince pies. since the Pilgrims
thought mnce pies were very wicked. and
savored of Romanism So they condemned
those who afterward made and ate them.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1911-11-24

What did our Puritan ancestors dine on at
their first Thanksgiving feast? Surely they
did not set the standard which Is being fol-
lowed today on the Thanksgiving dinner
menus.
We know that some things were lacking that
they must have greatly missed There could
have been no butter cream. milk. cheese. or
any dish that is principally made with milk
because there were no cows In New England
until 1923, when John Winthrop later their
worshipful governor, brought over four cows
from England. The butter and cheese that
they took with them on the Maylower were
long since consumed. hardly think they had
chicken pie for the feast. for the fowls were
served as rare delicacy for the sick. They
could have had eggs for their pies and pud-
dings. Since they raised pumpkins they might
have had pumpkin pies. If they made them
with water.
In the ocean there was great abundance OF
fish, oysters. and other shelfish. OF course,
there was none of their national dish, prime
roast beef. no veal. lamb. mutton pork
There was plenty of deer, which would be
good substitute in vension But they had one
thing that we like better than anything else
on Thanksgiving day. Wild turkeys were very
abundant in the woods and fields about Ply
