Marker Reads: "To this island in March 1634 Govenor Leonard Calvert and the first Maryland Colonists came in the vessels Ark and Dove. Here they took possession of the province of Maryland, erected a cross of Maryland wood and celebrated the holy sacrifice.Here they first brought to the new world those principles of religious liberty which have been the chief history of this state."
