Book Description
Excerpt from The Pilgrim Tercentenary Pageant, of Marietta, Ohio The Pilgrim Tercentenary Pageant of Marietta, Ohio, seeks to commemorate and to bring into their relation of very direct influence the coming of the Pilgrims to New England three hundred years ago and the coming of the pioneers to the North-West Territory in 1788. The parts are taken by members of the faculty and student body of Marietta College and by citizens of the town of Marietta and their families, all uniting to produce a drama of the history and background of their common community. The pageant grounds are located in Muskingum Park, Marietta, where some of the events represented in the episodes of the pageant took place, and in front of the First Congregational Church, the oldest of the churches, the fine architecture of which gives an excellent symbolic background for the historical and ideal scenes presented. The Pilgrim Tercentenary Pageant of Marietta, Ohio, has been written and composed on the principle that both dramatically and musically the pageant is a distinct and individual art-form, having its own laws and its own technique. All the elements of this pageant have been worked together in accordance with these laws and technical considerations, to produce, if may be, in the sequence of actual, typical or symbolic scenes a clear, beautiful and impressive drama of the events recorded and of their significance to this community. In presenting the historical material a certain freedom has necessarily been exercised for the sake of dramatic clarity and effectiveness. In many instances the language of the dialogue is in the actual words of the characters represented. It has, however, seemed inadvisable to indicate these passages by quotation marks, on account of the frequent necessity for making slight changes, omissions, or additions in the wording to suit the situation as represented. Also some of omissions and changes have been made in the producing which it has not been thought necessary to specify here.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Pilgrim Spirit: A Pageant in Celebration of the Tercentenary of the Landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth, Massachusetts, December 21, 1620 As the Pageant begins, there is a fanfare of trumpets passing to a hymn-like chord. From the canopied rock a rich, powerful voice speaks. The speaker is unseen. I, the rock of Plymouth, speak to you, Americans. Here I rested in the ooze From the ages primordial. Men came and went: Norsemen, Seamen of England, voyagers of France, Dutch adventurers; Over and round me The Indians worked, played, lived. I was a rock of millions along the shore, Waiting, - for what? Came pestilence, sweeping the Indians from the land. Not one remaining here at Patuxet, Accomack. Cap St. Louis, New England, as the Indian, the French, Prince Charles of England, called this spot. Around me the cleared fields waiting, The bay swarming with fish, The woods full of game, all waiting. I, too, waiting, for what? In England, growing, the spirit of man, Freed by his Bible, read in his home, Studied with passion. Out of the Church of England - a Puritan.

Excerpt from The Illustrated Pilgrim Memorial WE are some To complete this monument. We in Ohio will do a little, you in Massachusetts will do a great deal, and all New England will do something, and thus the monument IS TO BE built. - Hon. Sal mon P. Chase. And why not? To think of anything else would be worse than folly after so much has been done, and after it has now been well begun, and about one fourth of the necessary amount has been already subscribed. If it is asked who approve and aid the work, we refer to the six thousand members of the Pilgrim Society whose names may be found in another part of this book; and then there is a still larger list of contributors of sums under five dollars whose names are enrolled, and to be handed down to posterity, in the records of the Monument.
