Medford Historical Society Papers, Volume 25., Women of the Mayflower and Plymouth Colony. (search)
, on a very stormy day, there comes a stranger, promptly called Oceanus, and the Hopkins family becomes of great interest, with its new baby for the women and children to delight in. One who kept a record of those days wrote: At anchor in Cape Cod Harbor. This day Mistress Dorothy Bradford, wife of Master Bradford, fell overboard and was drowned. At last, in a November dawn, land is in sight. With the episode following, the women had no actual part, but with some it was of great intereseks later we see Mistress Brewster in her kitchen distilling herbs for Dr. Fuller, when all are startled by the sound of a gun from the fort. Another shot. Every wise woman and child knows this is a signal for assembly. A ship has entered Cape Cod harbor, seen by the Indians, who brought word at once to Plymouth. They had been seven months without sight or sound of the world beyond their little settlement. The sails of the Fortune had brought them once again a touch of the outside world.
