Nathaniel Philbrick Quote

In a letter hastily written to a friend in London, Cushman saw only doom and disaster ahead. Friend, if ever we make a plantation God works a miracle, especially considering how scant we shall be of victuals, and most of all un-united amongst ourselves and devoid of good tutors and regiment. Violence will break all. Where is the meek and humble spirit of Moses?
