6 SHOPPING DAYS i BEFORE XMAS | •• i MAYFLOWER DESCENDANTS IN , CAPE MAY COUNTY ■ 0 ' A most interesting and thoroughly ; ' .prepared work with the above title comes to our Society's library from - [ the publisher, Albert R. Hand, of , Cape May The author is Rev. Paul i Sturtevant Howe, Ph.' D., rector of : the Church of the Advent, at Cape ' May, and the son of Rev. Eldredge ' Gerry -Howe, -of Plymouth, Mass. It would almost seem, at a "glance of ' the 72-page index to this work ! (which is of 464 pages)_that every- , body in Cape May couhky, past or present, descends from "John How- j land,, the Pilgrim." The names of Edmunds, Eldredge, Foster, Hand, ' Hughes, Learning, Reeves and Smith J are but a few of those of whom many ; scores are naiped as in the' Pilgrim line- The first 98 pages are histfcric- ' al; then follow genalogical records of the Pilgrim ancestors of Cape May persons- There arc nine illustrations7 Evidently the volume is the work of * "three years," as stated in the " "Foreword," but most authors would ■ require twice- that period to accomplish what has been performed. The author is engaged now on another 1 work on the general subject, to be ; " entitled 'The Religious and Legal : ' Constitution of the Pilgrim State," , ! and he is clearly well-equipped .to ' make it an authoritative volume. — Proceedings New Jersey Historical : Society.
