Description: Seal of the Town of Bourne, originally painted by Charles S. Raleigh. "On the seal is a dutch shallop (small light open boat with sails) that is sailing up the Monument River to trade with the Indians on the shore. The pilgrims considered the area depicted in the seal, then known as Manomet, a favorite place for trading with the Indians and settlers."
