presents the historic Norfolk Mace to Virginia Governor James
H. Price, as an emblem of the Governor’s authority while
in Norfolk to lead the 16th annual pilgrimage to Cape Henry
on 26 April 1938. Cape Henry Day recognizes the English colonists
who landed here in 1607 and gave thanks before proceeding upriver
to settle at what they would call Jamestown. Also pictured are
