• Notes

  From the DEAR AMERICA series of books, A JOURNEY TO THE NEW WORLD: The Diary of Remember Patience Whipple, Mayflower, 1620 October 18, 1620 Mayflower 1900 miles sailed "There is also Priscilla Mullins but she be eighteen. Not really a child, however Hummy and I love Priscilla and think she is a most beautiful girl. We call her Lark, short for larkspur because that is our favorite flower and she has very blue eyes." page 25. December 5, 1620 Cape Cod Harbor "Hummy and I think that Laaaark is sweet on John Allden. Either that or she has developed a passion for the skills of barrel repair. Whenever he goes to check the water and beer barrels she is with him." page 63 December 10, 1620 Cape Cod Harbor "My only joy be in seeing Lark with John Alden. They appear to be most gloriously separate from all the darkness, all the rancor and the petty gossip. A different climate doth swirl about them." page 67 February 25, 1621 Plimoth Settlement "Over the past week fourteen people have died. Poor Lark now has lost everyone in her family. Thank God she has John Alden always by her side." page 101
