The Story Of
OurStates
By JONATHAN BRACE
VI.-MAssAcHUsETTs

Am4 aa IN was aa Indian
@ H 81 E| wa chuset
Va SWE S which, means
WS@tgd@ 'at the great
E2 hill" It was
used by the AlgonQuins to desig-
nate the tribe living near Blue
Hill in Milton, now a state reser-
yation near Boston and the high
est hill in the eastern part of the
state. This name was later ap-
pied to the great bay which
Blue hill overlooks. 1t was from
this bay that the state was
named. In fact, until 1892 the
colony was called the Massachu-
sets Bay colony, and after that
the Province of Massachusetts,
Bay until the Revolution made
it commonwealth. Even today
it is often called the Bay, state.
It was Capt. John Smith who
first made a map of the New
England coast and named the
Charles river in honor of "Baby
Charles" who afterward became
King Charles /. Other captains
visited the coast from time to
time, but it was not until the
fall Of 1920 that the Mayfiower
brought the first permanent set
tiers to the Massachusetts, shore.
The landing of the Pilgrims at
Provincctown and Plymouth
three hundred years ago was re-
Gently celebrated. Of the origi-
nal one hundred passengers on
the Mayf1ower more than half
died during the first winter. But
the sturdy survivors, with in
domitable courage, soon became
firmly established and from
their beginning, augmented by
the Puritan settlements of Salem
and the towns around Boston,
grew the state of Massachusetts,
which now extends over S,2SS
square miles. In proportion to
it's area Massachusetts is second
only to Rhode Island in popula-
ton and has eighteen. presiden-
tial electoral votes. This makes
Massachusetts, one Of the six
most important states from po-
litical point of view.
