Excerpt: ...preceded the Icelanders in America, possibly Ireland the Great. ' This cape was not Point Gilbert, but the terminus of Cape Cod, known as "Race Point," a dangerous place for navigation. It would seem that this was the locality referred to, for the reason that the next place mentioned is the shore near Plymouth, which is readily seen from the end of Cape Cod in a clear day. Here there is a hiatus in the narrative. It was the vicinity of Race Point that they called " Kialarness," vor Keel Cape. From Cape Cod it would seem they crossed to Plymouth, whose heights were in view of the cape in clear weather, and then worked along eastward, though the passage across the mouth of Cape Cod Bay is not mentioned, reaching the mouth of Boston Harbor, where Thorvald said, "Here met bad weather, and drove upon the land and broke the keel, and remained there a long time to repair the vessel. Thorvald said to his companions: "We will stick up the keel here upon the ness, and call the place Kialarness;" which they did. Then they sailed away eastward along the country, entering the mouths of the bays, to a point of land which was everywhere covered with woods. They moored the vessel to the land, laid out gangways to the shore, and Thorvald, with all his ship's company, landed. He said, " Here it is so beautiful, and I would willingly set up my abode here." ' They afterward went on board, and saw three specks upon the sand within the point, and went to them and found there were three skin boats with three men under each boat. They divided their men and took all of them prisoners, except one man, who escaped with his boat. They killed eight of them, and then went to the point and looked about them. "Within this bay they saw several eminences, which they took...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pre-Columbian Discovery of America by the Northmen: With Translations From the Icelandic Sagas The chief aim of this work is to place within the reach of the English-reading public every portion of the Ice laudie-sagas relating to the pre-columbian Discovery of America by the Northmen, and to indicate the movements by which that discovery was preceded. The reader will, therefore, find in this volume material from the Sagas not to be found in any other work in an English form. The Sagas have been left, in the main, to tell their own story, though the necessary notes and explanations have been added. So long ago as the year 1838, a distinguished writer in the North American Review, in closing a valuable and appreciative article on the Sagas relating to America, said: We trust that some zealous student of these subjects will be immediately found, who will put the Icelandic authorities into an English dress, and prepare them, with proper literary apparatus, for the perusal of the general reader.
