ON November 11 th. 16 20, the "MAYFLOWER" dropped anchor
in Provincetown harbor, and here in the cabin of their good ship was
drawn up that memorable "Compact of the Government" the first
charter of a democratic government in the world's history. Forty
days later this heroic band of hearty pilgrims weighed anchor and
sailed across the bay to find their first settlement which they called
PLYMOUTH.
