Pilgrim, 1spHrel
Ws Christina, Day !"

Puritan disapproval of Christmas
celebrations disembarked from the
Mayflower with the Pilgrims in
1921 and, accordingly, Governor
Bradford issued a statement pub
lcly rebuking certain young men
who declined to work on December
25, ''ye day called Christmas"
This first New England Christ
mas or non-observance thereof
should not be credited as the first
Christmas on American soil, since
Left Eriksen spent a winter or two
on the North American continent
around the turn of the 18th century.
Left was a Christian, and it is
likely that members of his crew
were Christians, too; although it
is quite possible that some had ac-
cepted the faith without remodel
ing their pagan natures, since King
Olaf's methods were ruthless and
his command "Be baptized, or
else!" left them little choice.
Undoubtedly, flagons of crude,
raw wine fermented from the
grapes of Leif's vinland were
passed around and the celebration
may have been rather boisterous,
but in all fairness to Leif-who, ac-
cording to excellent testimony, was
a sincere convert-it is reasonable
to assume that there was a trace
of religious observance.
Perhaps Left remembered the
few words of Latin prayer he
learned at the time of his CONVEX
sion and recited them in honor of
the birthday of the Redeemer he
had accepted. :. s. Thus, the first
Christmas in America was OBJ
served.

Gave back a rich and dazzling sheen,
That overpowered their natural
green.
Through hill and valley every breeze
Had sunk to rest with folded wings;
Keen was the air, but could not
freeze,
Nor check the music of the strings;
So stout and hardy were the band
That scraped the chords with stren-
uouS hand.
And who but listened? till was paid
Respect to every inmates claim;
The greeting given, the music played
In honor of each household name,
Duly pronounced with lusty call,
And merry Christmas" wished to
all!
