way up to Boston along the route we have so lightly followed.
Inheritors of a nation which these pioneers strove manfully,
worshipfully, to found, need we be ashamed of deep emotion as we stand
here, on this shore, where they landed three hundred years ago?

FOOTNOTES:

[2] It is hoped that by the summer of 1921 a beautiful and dignified
portico of granite will be raised as a final and permanent memorial over
the rock, which will be moved for the last time--lowered to as near its
original bed as possible. This work, which has been taken in charge by
the National Society of Colonial Dames of America will be executed by
McKim, Mead & White. The General Society of Mayflower Descendants are
also working for the redemption of the first Pilgrim burial place on
Cole's Hill. The Pilgrim Society is to assume the perpetual care of both
memorial and lot.
