I his little band of exiles, three hundred and thirty two years ago, crossed the stormy Atlantic and landed in a then wilderness on the New England coast. They were grateful to God for the safety of the voyage, for his miraculous care of them during a severe winter; also for the kindness of the native Indian people, and finally for the abundant harvest of the summer, wrick was adequate for their future needs. It had been a desperate venture for this little band, trusting only in God to preserve them. They now had the satisfaction of knowing that they were firmly established in their new home.
