SYMBOLISM.


Satuit Brook, from which the town derives its name. At the left a Cliff, at the right the Ocean. In the distance a Cedar Point with rocks running out into the water, and a Pilgrim ship.


An Indian, Wampatuck, from the land and the west, with a scroll, conferring grants of land and privileges.


A Pilgrim, Timothy Hatherly, from the sea and the east, receiving the scroll.


The dress of the Indian is taken from the Massachusetts State seal, and that of the Pil- grim from the Colonial paintings by Boughton.
