Présentation de l'éditeur
Myles Standish for so he spelled the name, and so his lineal descendant of the same name spells it to-day was one of the most picturesque figures of the Plymouth Colony. The soldier is always an interesting figure. But this soldier had traits which made him doubly interesting, especially in the circumstances of his position in Plymouth Colony. The story of his courtship rests upon tradition, and the few historical references narrated in Longfellow spoem are given with substantial accuracy. John Standish was one of the kings servants, and was one of the first who wounded Wat Tyler after he had been felled by the Lord Mayor of London. For this he, along A vith others, was knighted. The family estate was in Lancashire. There were two branches of the family, one at Standish Hall, and the other at Duxbury Hall, near by.
