Excerpt from High Bradford Pilgrims, burning with love of freedom as they saw it, colonized the wooded country beyond the dunes; and their descendants, true to the enterprise of their birthright, turned back to the sea for their fortune, which, even in the humble day of its beginning, meant to them the profit of a man's mind as well as his body, and their decree that the colony's share Of the fisheries should go for and towards a free school for the good and benefit of pos terity bore the just fruit of such planting.
