WILLIAM BRADFORD

WILLIAM BRADFORD

From Of Plimouth Plantation (1630-1650)

From the Original Manuscript.  With a Report of the Proceedings Incident to the Return of the Manuscript to Massachusetts.  Printed Under the Direction of the Secretary of the Commonwealth by Order of the General Court.

[Note: This text is from before standardized spelling in English and uses the letter “thorn,” which at one time represented the sound “th.” It appears similar to a letter “y” in print.  This is why if one were to see “Ye Olde Candle Shoppe,” it would be read as “The Old Candle Shop.”]
