Preliminary to a pilgrimage touching on points associated with Peter Jay Munro in the general vicinity of Mamaroneck, members of the society and guests met at the Mamaroneck Free Library to hear several talks. Mr. Charles M. Baxter, Junior, president of the Society, and Supervisor Bert McCollock welcomed the group. Mr. Charles M. Baxter, Senior, gave a reminiscent address. Two prize-winning Swope contest essays were read, one by Miss Gloria Rothenburg on Peter Jay Munro, and the other by Mr. Milton Prighoff on Mamaroneck and Larchmont cemeteries. Mr. William G. Fulcher, general chairman for the day, discussed the pilgrimage route and the places
to be visited. These places included the birthplace of Peter Jay Munro in Rye and also his grave in the Jay cemetery; Saint Thomas's Church in Mamaroneck of which he was a founder. The pilgrimage ended with a tea and reception at the home of Mrs. Wesley Oler, Senior, in Larchmont, which was built by Peter Jay Munro in 1798 and where he lived for many years.
