Saint Davids Day has been observed since 1729. This annual event led to the formation of the Saint Davids Society. a group dedicated to the preservation of the language and rich traditions of Wales. Americans of Welsh descent have long been recognized as pioneers in such fields as iron and tin works and coal mining. The immigration of the people of Wales to this country indicates that they were a strong and stable influence in the settlement of the United States. In recognizing this anniversary today. I am proud to honor those who look to Saint David as their patron.
