• Commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Pilgrim's landing in America, Rev. H.M. Goodwin delivered two discourses on The Pilgrim Fathers: A Glance at Their History, Character and Principles. He introduced his topic as follows:
  "I propose to speak of our obligation to the Pilgrim Fathers, and to show these by considering
  I. Who the Pilgrims were, and what they did and suffered in this world, for the cause of God and humanity.
  II. Their character, faith and polity, and the influence of these upon the character of the Nation.
  III. The duty we owe to their memory and principles. . . ."
