The fountain consists of n inassivp square shaft supporting a lofty howl from whhli water pours in continual streams Into a pool lielovv. On the side of the shaft facing the harbor Is the lUesIze figure of the 1 ilgrini Mother by C. I, Jenneweiu, a Nevv York sculptor. Dressed In Pilgrim garb, the figure expresses In face and attitude the faith, patience, strength, endurance and devotion of the founders of New England On the opposite side of the shaft are engraved the names of the women passengers of the Mayflower and below them these words: "They brought up their families In sturdy virtue and a living faith In God without which na tlons perish. At the time of the dedication of this fountain Sirs. George Maynard Miner, honorary president-genera- l of the I). A. , paid this tribute to the U-- Pilgrim mothers: "After daring the perils of the unknown land, after sharing with the men all the hardships and privations and sufferings of a voyage of weeks In a cockle-shel- l of a boat, and landing on a desolate and savage coast In the dead of winter, inhabited only by wild men and wild beasts, after experiences that might well overcome the hardiest and most gallant nature, they settled down to the making of homes, with a faith In the dally presence and guidance of God which sustained them In every hour of need. Through hunger and starvation, through sick ness and death which exacted the toll of half their number, they tolled on and endured, looking only toward the goal of their high calling In Christ Jesus. We hear fur more about the Pilgrim fathers thau we do about the Pilgrim mothers. While In no way wishing to detract from the rightful glory of the fathers, nevertheless, It Is time that the world realized the part that these women Played In civilization. It is time that history note of them. Rarely, If ever, are thev mentioned by name, except In the genealogies, or by specialists in Pilgrim history. Their names! with few exceptions, are not household words on our tongues, like those of Miles Stnndisb, or William Bradford and the rest. They figure only In the passenger list of the Mayflower and as Mary or Katharine, etc., wife of So andonly So. The family names of but few are given. The names of some are IPernlly unknown, not even the bnpt snial name bvdng recorded These latter figure solely ns the wives of the fathers, without further Identification.
