PILGRIMS
- A pilgrim is a person who goes on a long journey often with a religious or moral purpose and especially to a foreign land.
- 'Pilgrim' became the popular term applied to all the Mayflower passengers.
- It took 64 days for the pilgrim ship Mayflower to cross the Atlantic.
- Many Pilgrims died the first year because they ran out of food and got sick.
- Indians introduced themselves to the Pilgrims and taught them how to use fish to fertilize corn and how to get sap from maple trees.
