EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts the Elder Brewster Spring, located on the historic land owned and inhabited by Elder William Brewster in Massachusetts, USA, around the 1620s. Elder Brewster, born in England in 1568, was a prominent figure among the Pilgrims who embarked on the Mayflower in 1620 in search of religious freedom. Upon their arrival in Plymouth Colony, Brewster's education and leadership qualities led him to become the senior elder and the spiritual leader of the community. The Elder Brewster Spring is a significant reminder of the early days of Plymouth Colony and the settlers' struggle for survival in the New World. The spring, which is still in existence today, was likely a vital source of fresh water for the Pilgrims during their first few years in the colony. The land on which the spring is situated was owned and built upon by Elder Brewster in 1621, making it one of the oldest pieces of property in the United States. This photograph, taken in the 1910s, captures the serene beauty of the spring and the surrounding landscape. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the daily life of the Pilgrims and their leader, Elder William Brewster, as they worked to build a new community in the New World.
