PURITAN DAMES.

We hear a great deal these days of our puritan fore- fathers, but little concerning the wives and moth- ers who landed at Plymouth Rock and founded that colony which was destined to play such a large part in our history.

In 1621 E Cushman wrote from Plymouth that he “would not advise any one to ceme here who were mot con tent to spend their time, labors and endeavers for the benefit of those who shall come afsler, quitely con tentiag them- selves with such hardships awd difficul- ties as shall fall upen them.’ What self-renunciation and heroic purpose sthis! They drowne< witches one sure, t that was no part of their patttanism. It o the puritan women we owe so much for Spirit in our peopl: which gives them “‘lortitude to endure iardship and stake ‘and fortune for thei: convictions. of to-day have the
