The Patriot Files Forums - Thanksgiving described by kids

The Pilgrams were a bunch of English
wonderers who wanted to worship as
they wanted to. They excaped the
Church of England and came over here
because they heard that
American churches were different.

The May Flower was the ship with
which they came in. It didn't have a
bathroom on board so there was quite an odor.
Priscillia Mullins was the captain.

First the Pilgrams had gone to Holland
but left when their children started
developing customs there. After a
stopover at Williamsbug when a large
storm blew them off course they
landed on a big, slimey rock in
Massatusetts. They spent the winter there.

Before they got off the ship even they
drew up an agreement for the people
of Plymouth to agree on the voting for
governors and congressmen. They kept
this hid in the May Flower Compact.
Lord Delaware was elected the first
governor of Plymouth Rock.

A friendly Indian named Rhone Oak
showed the Pilgrams how to plant corn by
putting it in the ground. Rhone Oak
had been the first Indian to come to
America and always wanted a beer.
He traveled around with Miles Standy and
translated language.

Another interupter for the white
man was Squanto, who was called that
because he was so short. Squanto drew
up a declaration to give the settlers
freedom of goverment in the new land.
The Pilgrams gave the Indians thanks
for all this and that's what started Thanksgiving.

The Pilgrams then appointed Thanksgiving
as a national holiday. Abraham
Lincoln later pronounced it and gave
it to them and it soon became a
national holiday all around the world.

These people always wore old shoes
with a big buckel on the top of them.
The men wore pants that only came
a little ways past the knees and the
girls wore funny bonets.

But if these people wouldn't had of
come to America the United States
wouldn't be like it is today.

they're great aren't they?? make you smile?? pass it along!!!
