Then, taking each by the hand, as II
he were grasping tiller,
Into the boat he sprang, and In haste
showed off to his vessel
Glad in his heart to get rid of all this
worry and furry,
Glad to be gone from land of sand
and sickness and sorrow.
Short allowance of victuals and plenty
of nothing but Gospel!
Lost in the sound Of the oars was the
last farewell of the Pilgrims.
o strong hearts and true! not one
went back in the Mayflower!
No, not one looked back. who had sci

Soon were heard on board the
shouts and songs Of the sailors
Heaving the windlass round, and
hoisting the ponderous anchor.
Then the yards were braced, and all
sails set to the west wind,
Blowing steady and strong; and the
Mayflower sailed from the harbor
Rounded the point of the Gurnet, and
leaving far to the southwark
Island and cape of sand and the Field
of the First Encounter,
Took the wind on her quarter, and
stood for the open Atlantic,
Borne on the send Of the sea, and the
swelling hearts of the Pilgrims.
Long In silence they watched the re
ceding sail of the vessel,
Much endeared to them all, as some
thing living and human;
Then, as If filled with the spirit. and
rapt In vision prophetic,
Barring his hoary head. the excellent
Elder of Plymouth
Said, Let us pray!" and they prayed
and thanked the Lord and took
courage.
Mournfully sobbed the waves at the
base of the rock, and above then
Bowed and whispered the wheat or
the hill of death, and their kin

Seemed to awake in their graves, anc

Cleaned the departing sail, like 6

Buried beLeath 1t lay for ever all hope
Of escaping.
Loi as they turned to depart, they
saw the form of an Indian,
Watching them from the hill; bu
while they spake with each other
Pointing with outstretched hands, ant
saying, Look" he had vanished
So they returned to their homes; bu
Alden fingered a little,
Musing alone on the shore, ant
watching the wash Of the billowl
Round the base of the rock, and the
sparkle and flash of the sun

Like the spirit of God, moving visibl,

Foremost among them was Alden
All night he had lain without
slumber.
Charlevoix county herald., 1911-10-28

Turning and tossing about in the heat
and unrest OF his fever.
He had beheld Miles Standish. who
came back late from the council.
Stalking into the room. and heard him
mutter and murmur.
Sometimes It seemed prayer, and
sometimes 1t sounded like swear
ing.
Once he had come to the bed. and
stood there a moment In silence;
Then he had turned away, and said:
II will not wake him;
Let him sleep on, 1t is best; for what
Is the use Of more talking!"
Then he extinguished the light and
threw himself down on his pallet,
Dressed as he was, and ready to start
at the break of the morning.
Covered himself with the cloak he
had worn In his campaigns In
Flanders
Slept as a soldier sleeps In his
bivouac, ready for action.
But with the dawn he arose: In the
twilight Alden beheld him
Put ON his corselet OF steel, and all
the rest of his armor,
Buckle about his waist his trusty
blade of Damascus,
Take from the corner his musket, and
so stride out of the chamber.
Often the heart Of the youth had
burned and yearned to embrace
him,
Often his lips had essayed to speak,
imploring for pardon;
All the old friendship came back,
with its tender and grateful emo
tions;
But his pride overmastered the nobler
nature within him.
Pride, and the sense Of his wrong.
and the burning fire of the insult.
So he beheld his friend departing in
anger, but spake not,
Saw him go forth to danger, perhaps
to death, and he spake not!
Then he arose from his bed, and
heard what the people were say.

Joined in the talk at the door, with
Stephen and Richard and Gilbert,
Joined In the morning prayer, and in
the reading of Scripture,
And, with the others, IN haste went
hurrying down to the sea shore,
Down to the Plymouth Rock. that had
been to their feet as a doorstep
Into a world unknown,-the corner
stone OF q nation!
There with his boat was the Master,
already a little impatient
Lest he should lose the tide, or the
wind might shift to the eastward.
Square-built, hearty, and strong, with
an odor of ocean about him,
Speaking with this one and that, and
cramming letters and parcels
Into his pockets capacious, and mes
sages mingled together
Into his narrow brain. till at last he
was wholly bewildered.
Nearer the boat stood Alden, with one
foot placed on the gunwale,
One still firm on the rock, and talking
at times with the sailors,
Seated erect on the thwarts. all ready
and eager for starting.
He, too, was eager to go, and thus
put an end to his anguish,
Thinking to fly from despair, that
swifter than keel is or canvas,
Thinking to drown in the sea the
ghost that would rise and pursue
him.
But as he gazed on the crowd, he be-
held the form of Priscilla
Standing detected among them, uncon-
scious Of all that was passing.
Fixed were her eyes upon his, as If
she OWNED his intention,
Fixed with look so sad, SO reproach-
full, imploring and patient,
That with sudden revulsion his
heart recoiled from its purpose,
AS from the verge of a crag, where
one step more Is destruction.
