The Pathfinder song was written by Henry T. Bergh, whom is not on this list! If you look at the history of the Pathfinders and the song specifically, you find that John Hancock suggested that Bergh write a song for the Pathfinders. This was rather interesting to find out about. I was rather intrigued to hear that John Hancock had suggested someone - who wasn’t even a musician - write a song. This is interesting.
However, after the suggestion came up, it was alright with Bergh. So, he decided to write the song after taking a trip. He went to a mission and he got the idea for a song on that trip.
That’s basically the story, in mini form. It is a really interesting read, so look it up.
