Book The Pilgrims of Iowa  Classic Reprint

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pilgrims of Iowa Mr. Turner closed his work at Denmark in 1868, but he did not close his life until 1885; so that I was his contemporary here in Iowa for seventeen years. I knew personally all the other patriarchs, Gaylord, Reed, Holbrook and Emerson, though Gaylord and Holbrook had left the state before I came. Before 1868, Hutchinson and Spaulding of the Band had died, and Alden and Ripley had returned to New England. The other seven of the eleven were still associated with Iowa, although just then E. B. Turner was in Missouri; all these I knew well, and some of them intimately. With Ephraim Adams and Salter, I was in close association for more than forty years. (i protest, however, in spite of many statements to the contrary, that I was not a member of the Band!) Meet ing Brother Adams for the first time at a joint session of the Mitchell and Garnavillo Associations, at mcgregor in October of 1868, I said, Well, I never will get acquainted with that man, so quiet, so stately and so sedate! But I did get acquainted with him. He gave me the right hand of fellowship at my ordination, and he became to me the brother of all the brethren; and he came into my life as no other man in Iowa has done. He selected me for his successor at Decorah, but the church did not ratify the election! He did not choose me as his successor in the office of superintend ent, but I am sure he was glad to have me there. Tears will come now as I think of the wounding of his dear, sensitive heart in that he was permitted to lead the forces only to the borders of the Promised Land of self-support.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pilgrims First Year in New England In so many details of minor facts, it is well nigh impossible to avoid errors; but it is hoped that few of importance have escaped detection. When state ments are made, which have only probability for their basis, care has been taken to indicate this, so that they may be readily distinguished from what is supported by positive evidence. A number of inter esting anecdotes, though often published, have been omitted in this work, because probabilities were strongly against their truth. May the author be permitted to h0pe, that the pleasure he has enjoyed in writing these pages will be shared by his readers.

Book The Pilgrims and Their History  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Pilgrims and Their History Classic Reprint written by Roland G. Usher and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pilgrims and Their History I have attempted a new study Pilgrims and their history from the sources. While I was unable to find much new evidence of prime importance, I have perhaps been able to exclude from further consideration the possibility of ascertaining information about the Pilgrims from the evidence concerning the Puritan Movement in England from 1580 to 1610, and from that regarding the history of the Established Church for the same period. But I have been able to place the older material about the Pilgrims in its relation to the more recent evidence concerning English church history, and have as well utilized for the first time the Plymouth First Church records and many Plymouth wills, which contain much of great value on economic and social history. No further accession of evidence is now probable and it is therefore an important fact, though due to no merit of mine, that the narrative presented in these pages possesses a certain aspect of finality. A new study of old evidence and the use of some new material has made possible certain differences in interpretation, in emphasis, and in judgment, the importance of which must not be unduly exaggerated. I have felt it possible to show that the Pilgrims were not subject to active persecution in England from Church or State; that Robinson's Congregation at Leyden was considerably smaller than most students have estimated; and that the really significant achievement was not the emigration itself, but the economic success of the years 1621 to 1627.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pilgrims' March He dabbed his chin thoughtfully with his shaving brush, and stared out beyond his looking-glass into a green world of tree-tops rocking to and fro in the morning sunlight. Between them, here and there, he could see blue fragments of the distant downs, and the delicate, windy line that divided them from the Sky. He sighed a little, and returned to his soaping. Now there was a time, he proceeded, there was a time when I rose punctually, if not with the lark, at any rate no later than nine in the morning at least; wasn't there, Barker?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Winter Days in Iowa I am glad to have the privilege, thus in advance, of looking over Mr. Lazell's delightful essays. He has surely a gift in this sort of thing. We are grateful to the man who shows us what he sees in Nature, but more to the man who like our present author shows us how easy and blessed it is to see for ourselves. Mr. Lazell reminds me of Thoreau and Emerson, and I can suggest no better foreword than the passage from the last named author, from the Method of Nature, as follows: "Every earnest glance we give to the realities around us with intent to learn, proceeds from a holy impulse and is really songs of praise. What difference can it make whether it take the shape of exhortation, or of passionate exclamation, or of scientific statement? These are forms merely. Through them we express, at last, the fact that God has done thus or thus." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
