   Extractions: The Separatists were less numerous by far than other classes of Nonconformists, yet they formed the advance guard of the great Puritan exodus from the mother country to the shores of New England. The town of Scrooby in Nottinghamshire was the center of a scattered congregation of Separatists whose minister was John Robinson and whose ruling elder was William Brewster, the village postmaster. After enduring many persecutions this little band of Christians, who now became "Pilgrims," escaped with difficulty from their native land to Amsterdam, Holland, whence a year later they removed to Leyden. Here they dwelt for eleven years, exiles for conscience' sake, earning their bread by the labor of their hands. But the Pilgrims felt that Holland was not their home; they could not endure the thought of giving up their language and customs for those of the Dutch, nor were they willing to return to their native England, where religious persecution had not abated. They had heard of the colony of Virginia , and their thoughts were directed to the wilderness of the New World.

2. Yaffles & Yaffles - Squantum
   The life story of Squantum (Squanto), a native american who helped the Pilgrim Fathers.  
   http://www.baccalieu.com/squantum
   
   Extractions: On March 16, 1621, an important event occured for the Pilgrim Fathers. An Indian, Samoset, walked into their Plymouth settlement and called out "Welcome Englishmen, Welcome Englishmen." After he spoke, the Pilgrims whispered in amazement. The man spoke English. He seemed friendly, so the Pilgrims greeted him openly, yet cautiously. Samoset told them he would return with his friend who spoke better English. When he returned as he had promised, he brought not only his friend Squantum (Squanto,) but also Massasoit (the sachem or tribal chief.) Samoset indroduced Squantum to the Pilgrims as "a native of this place who had been in England and could speak better English than himself. " With the help of Squantum's interpretation, Massasoit and Governor Carver made a peace treaty that would last for at least fifty more years.

   Extractions: When North America was first settled by the English race the blessings of religious freedom had not yet fully dawned upon mankind. For a century the Christian world had struggled with the intolerant spirit of the Middle Ages. Much, indeed, had been accomplished, but the evolution was slow, and another century must elapse before one could stand in the broad daylight of religious liberty. These Dissenters, or Nonconformists, as they were often called, were very numerous during the reign of James I. James was a narrow-minded pedant, and probably without any very deep religious convictions. Bred in the Presbyterian faith, he despised Presbyterianism because incompatible with his ideas of monarchy. Of the Puritans he said, "I will make them conform, or I will harry them out of the land." They refused to conform, and the cruel monarch did the latter he harried them out of the land.

Here, the shackles of poverty, restriction and injustice would magically fall away and in this second Garden of Eden, men and women could at long last be free to pursue their own destiny. It was, of course, a utopian dream and took no account of the perils that lurked in unknown territory which was already occupied by native Americans, not all of whom were friendly. Nevertheless, the dream was extremely potent, not only for those who sought AmericaÕs fabled wealth, but those whose consciences were chained by religious persecution. The Protestant Reformation, which had begun in 1517, had reached England some twenty years later. As elsewhere in Europe, it spawned dissenting minorities who were rather more ascetic in the practice of their new faith than the Church of England which was Protestant in name, but was, effectively, Catholicism without the Pope. Of these, the plain-living Puritans who eschewed what they saw as the gaudy, papist show of the English church, were the most overt and became the most oppressed. In 1609, the Puritans found England so inimical that 35 of them left the country and settled at Leyden, in Holland. Holland was much more to their strict religious taste, but after ten years, the Puritans began to seek a better freedom than a patch in a foreign land.

   Extractions: hen the Pilgrims fled from England to Holland to evade persecution they were but one of many groups seeking refuge in Leiden. Holland was tolerant, after feeling the Spanish terror and converting to a sober-minded Protestantism. Also, the economic advantages of this influx of artisans and craftsmen was recognized; the boom in the Leiden cloth industry owed a lot to the arrival of French and Flemish weavers. The Pilgrims led a quiet life in Leiden between 1609 and 1620. They held their services in a chapel of the university. William Bradford was a member of the wool guild and reverend John Robinson lived in the spot where later the Jean Pesijn almshouses were built. Robinson stayed in Leiden, died and was buried in the Peter's Church in 1625. In the Pieterskerkchoorsteeg one can still find the house where William Brewster's Pilgrim Press produced dissident pamphlets which were smuggled to England. But peace and quiet wasn't enough for the Pilgrims. The tolerance they enjoyed also became a source of irritation. Too many different creeds and lifestyles influenced their offspring and after 12 years they decided to leave for the New World to found a society completely based on their convictions.
