A Message from the President To ALL Visiting Friends of Nantucket Greetings: We celebrate in this year 1959 three centuries of activities and accomplishments of the people who came here to settle and live somewhat isolated and difficult lives. People who have put their stamp not only on this community but on many another town and city where they have removed in groups from time to time.

We may find descendants of Nantucketers living in localities situated in the southern states, the middle west, the far west and parts of Canada. There have been several sizable migrations from this small Island in the Atlantic.

Those that left or those who remained were a hardy lot.

Many roamed the world in small ships, gaining a livelihood and self-respect from the capture of the world's largest mammals, showing patience, courage, and dogged perseverance to accom­ plish these ends.

These were the folks who built the Town of Nantucket, con­ structed the very buildings you will see here today, and left to us a heritage the equal of which would be difficult to find elsewhere.

We extend a welcome to all who come to enjoy the activities of this celebration and who have an appreciation of what Nan­ tucket represents. May your stay here be enjoyable and may you develop an affection for "The Island" that will bring you back again and again in the years ahead.

George W. Jones, President

Editorial NANTUCKET'S THREE HUNDREDTH ANNIVERSARY! We are in the midst of the celebration commemorating the 300th birthday of the settling of Nantucket Island. Some communities change but little in a 300-year span, but Nantucket's history for these past three centuries has been varied and vivid. From 1659 to the year 1959, this Island has been a place of refuge and a haven. At first, for those persecuted for their Faith and their beliefs, and lastly for those oppressed by tensions and overcrowded cities on the Mainland.

The 300th Birthday Committee, under the able direction of Mr. George Jones, (our president), as Chairman, has worked out an interesting schedule of events. Already we have had NAN­ TUCKET DAY observed in the schools of Massachusetts, pro­ claimed by the Commissioner of Education, on May 22. On Nan­ tucket the Day was celebrated by a lively and informative talk

by Dr. Will Gardner, whose many books about the history of Nantucket are well known. In the Grades songs and poems were recited, and a short play depicting happenings in the whaling era was enacted.

The Sheep-Shearing Festival, re-enacting the yearly custom of one of the Island's main industries in the early days, has been celebrated.

The outstanding historical event, the BIRTHDAY, on July 2, commemorating the landing of the first White Settlers on the Island was marked by the speaker, Mr. Edouard Stackpole, former president of our Association, and now Curator of Mystic Seaport Museum, as an unique Historical event.

The Reunions of the families of the Founding-Fathers de­ serve special mention. The Coffins and Macys; the Folgers, Bunk­ ers, Starbucks, and Husseys, have already gathered or are making extensive plans to commemorate the courageous lives of their ancestors.

Other happenings which we look forward to are the Whaling Seminars, July 15, 16, 17, and August 12, 13, and 14; and a play, "The China Trade", based on a true Nantucket story concerning

7 the friendship of a whaling Captain and a Chinese Mandarin of Canton. The play is by M. G. Fawcett. Peter Poor, director of the Straight Wharf Playhouse, is presenting it in honor of Nan­ tucket's 300 years, the week of July 20th.

On August 11 the revival of the Main Street Fete takes place.

From the Pacific Bank to the Monument will be re-enacted the days of the 1830's and '40's, when whaling days were in their glory!

Last, let me mention that even "Historic Nantucket" changed format with a bright blue cover as an appropriate reminder of the waters of the sea surrounding the Island, and affecting so much of its history.

Annual Reports The annual meeting of the members of the Association is scheduled to be held Tuesday, July 21, 1959, and to expedite the procedure, reports of Chairmen and Treasurer are recorded here.

If any member has questions regarding the reports they may pre­ sent such questions during the business meeting. The President's report will be presented at the meeting. *

In 1905, President H. S. Wyer opened the Annual Meeting with these words: "We gather from far and near around the old hearthstone, all eager to cast upon the altar of affection our trib­ utes of love for the old home... . This sentiment, delightfully ex­ pressed by Longfellow: "Often I think of the beautiful town That is seated by the sea, Often in thought go up and down The pleasant streets of that dear old toivn, And my youth comes back to me." . .. Time has dealt so kindly with us of late that it would be ungrateful to regret that we are a year older." In this 300th Birthday Year of Nantucket, and the 65th year of our Associa­ tion, happily, we may repeat these very sentiments as we read the following annual reports. *

HISTORICAL MUSEUM AND FRIENDS MEETING HOUSE

BY MRS. WILLIAM L. MATHER

During the season of 1958, 3120 visitors were welcomed to the Fair Street Museum and Friends Meeting House. Our official staff, Miss Alma Robbins, Miss Alice Crocker, and Miss Bertha Eckert answered numerous inquiries about our exhibits. Jay Gibbs kept the grounds in order as well as opening the Meeting House on Sundays during July and August for the customary services of visiting Friends.

New lights have been installed in the gallery and library of the Museum to take care of the dark days of which there were many during the season. The gallery floor and the main staircase have been refinished giving a fresh and neat appearance to the interior where the beautiful old family pieces and portraits are displayed.

It was an average year in attendance but keen interest in our exhibits was shown by numerous visitors from foreign lands, es­ pecially China, Bali, and Japan, as well as European countries, and from all sections of this country.

ANNUAL REPORTS

THE OLDEST HOUSE

BY MRS. RUTH PERKINS

The paid admissions at the Oldest House for 1958-59 season were 4,329. Also we had 68 members and 881 children who visited.

Miss Ethel Clark served as custodian.

A change in furniture arrangement was made when the high four poster in the first floor east room was moved to the West Chamber.

Two additions, which are greatly appreciated, were received.

A spinning wheel from Mr. C. Sibley and a dripping stone from Miss Esther Gibbs.

"1800 HOUSE"

BY NANCY S. ADAMS

Another year has passed with very little change in the man­ agement of the house. Mrs. Susan Cowden served again as Recep­ tionist with our ever-faithful volunteer hostesses assisting her.

The floors in the East Parlor and Front Hall have been re­ painted and a few new items have been added to the furnishings.

We are still in need of more period furniture and hope there will be some added this coming year.

The grounds are always a problem, but last year the grass was mowed several times and a doorstone placed at the back door.

Repairs were made to gutters and a kitchen window which had rotted out. There are changes that could be made to make the house more attractive when the funds are available.

The Season of 1958 was not as busy as we would like, the total number of visitors being 1,221.

With the celebration of the Birthday of the Town of Nan­ tucket the coming season, we hope there may be an increase in the number of visitors to our fine house.

OLD JAIL

BY OSWELL J. SMALL

For the season of 1958 we had an attendance of 2,096. Thirtynine were by membership cards and we had 450 book sales. There have been a few minor repairs.

Much credit is due our custodian, Mr. Chester Faunce, for his excellent care of the Old Jail and the grounds this past year.

HISTORIC NANTUCKET THE OLD MILL

BY ROBERT C. CALDWELL

We are hoping- this year, on Nantucket's 300th Birthday that the Old Mill will have a banner attendance.

Plans are now underway to operate the Mill for grinding corn on Sunday afternoons. Mr. Franklin Lamb will be the miller. Mr. Lamb operated the mill in 1937-38 under the able chairmanship of Mr. and Mrs. Ackerman.

We want to thank the Boy Scouts of Nantucket for the won­ derful job they have done in clearing the cobblestone track.

The Mill is being painted and "spruced up" for a full season.

Mr. Greene will again be our interested and competent cus­ todian and we are most grateful to him.

Any donations to help us keep the Old Mill, which is the only one left on the Island, in good condition will be gratefully accepted.

THE WHALING MUSEUM

BY W. RIPLEY NELSON, CHAIRMAN

Paid admission fees to the Museum during the 1958 summer season numbered 17,755 as against the all-time high record of 20,118 for the 1957 season. The falling off reflects the decline in business generally experienced by the Island due to the unusually bad weather, especially fogs, during the 1958 summer.

ANNUAL REPORTS

13

The steady and almost phenomenal growth in admissions over the period of twenty-nine years the Museum has been open is evidence, however, of its ever-growing popularity, interest, and drawing power. For the first ten years, 1930-1939, admissions totalled 70,200. For the second ten years, 1940-1949, which included the Second World War years, admissions totalled 95,000. Thus we have a total of 165,119 paid admissions for the first twenty years.

Now let us turn to the next nine years which brings us down through 1958. For the first five years, 1950-1954, paid admissions totalled 75,815, or equal to 46 per cent of the paid admissions for the previous twenty years. For the next four years, 1955-1959 inclusive, paid admissions totalled 71,965. This makes a total for the last nine years, 1950-1958 inclusive, of 147,780 paid admissions which equals 90 per cent of the paid admissions of 165,200 for the previous and first twenty years. Thus for the 29-year period, total paid admissions soared to 312,980.

But these figures do not tell the whole story for they do not include admissions of members, who are admitted free, and also children under 12 years of age. Then, too, the Museum season is limited to approximately four and a half months but with most of the transient vacationers visiting the Museum during the two months of July and August. Truly it may be said that the museum has a remarkable admissions record. Our staff has played an im­ portant part in establishing this record. They deserve a great deal of credit for the public good will and friendship they have built up through their able and efficient management, but particularly the warm welcome they have extended to the public despite the heavy load.

The creation and opening to the public of the Five Whale Craft shops and Counting Room Vault door exhibits are the out­ standing new developments. A complete report thereon is made in a special story printed in this issue. A substantial financial donation from the Nantucket Historical Trust toward the installa­ tion cost was of timely and genuine help.

Thanks to the generosity of several loyal members, our Li­ brary was redecorated. This was the one remaining room which had not received attention and was badly in need of redecoration which was made possible through the liberal donations received.

At the same time the thirty-year-old linoleum floor covering was

14

HISTORIC NANTUCKET

removed and replaced with tile flooring under authority granted by the Council. Mrs. Chace, our Librarian, when putting back on the shelves all the books and records, has installed on each shelf new and modern labelling system. Our library is now really a show place which, by itself, makes the visitor feel a warm and cordial welcome is being extended to sit down, relax, and enjoy what its shelves and files have to offer. This welcome is completed by the gracious reception extended by our Librarian and her helpfulness to visitors.

The season opens for 1959 with our veteran staff and several additions. Archie Cartwright, Custodian, will be on hand to pilot visitors though Sanderson Hall and tell stories as only an ex­ perienced whaler can tell them. Mrs. Bernice Foye will be at the reception desk again to welcome visitors and to answer questions about the scrimshaw exhibits and the Counting Room. Mrs. Ellen Chace, a fountain of knowledge about log books, whaling records, and stories, will serve again as librarian.

Welcome additions to our staff include Bertram Morris, Mrs. Elmer F. Pease, and James Everett Chapel. Mr. Morris will have charge of exhibiting the whale craft shops. Mrs. Pease will serve as a relief member for Mrs. Foye and Mrs. Chace, and Mr. Chapel will serve as a relief staff member for Messrs. Cartwright and Morris. All three are well-known Nantucket residents and their knowledge of Nantucket history will be appreciated by the public.

The Whale Craft Shops Five New Exhibits Add to the Whaling Museum's Historical Future

BY W. RIPLEY NELSON

There were many industries or crafts collateral to whaling which were conducted in shops on the wharfs and at various locations throughout the Town of Nantucket. But of these shops all visible evidence has gradually disappeared over the years.

Pictures, descriptions, and other factual data as to the shops and the crafts are scarce and those available give but meager data from which to rebuild authentic replicas. Even more important is the fact that those who could give first hand information as to the set up of the shops and how the work was handled are few7 and far between among the residents of the town today.

The closing of the last blacksmith shop a few years ago made manifest that if any visual record of the shops and crafts, so im­ portant to the town in the days of whaling and so vital a part of the history of whaling, was to be preserved for posterity some­ thing should be done promptly. Accordingly last winter after

22

HISTORIC NANTUCKET

intensive research, consultation, and planning, the Council of the Association decided to reproduce at least some replicas in part, of the shops in which some of the crafts were carried on.

Certain of the industries or crafts such as a ship yard or a rope walk were too big and extensive to reproduce even on a small scale in the restricted space of a museum building. It was determined though, that the unused and unfinished part of the first floor of the Whaling Museum would provide sufficient space to install replicas in part of the shops of five of the important crafts; a ship-smith's shop; a sail loft; a rigging loft; a whaleboat shop, and a cooperage. Work was started promptly and as a result of months of research and labor during the past winter the exhibits were completed in time for the museum opening May 30.

Each shop is built in a separate booth varying in length from 12 to 22 feet and in depth, 6 to 10 feet, and are arranged on two sides of a visitors' hallway. The walls, floors, work benches are all made of old wood and old nails; the forge, furnace, and fireplace of old brick sooted up as from years of use. Finally the collecting, sorting out, and correct placing of equipment and tools was carried out with infinite care to insure reasonable authenticity and an at­ mosphere of use and age in each exhibit.

The Entrance Way Directly opposite the main entrance of the Museum and to the right of the stairs to the second floor is a doorway marked "To the whale craft shops." Passing through it one enters a low ceiling cellar showing miscellaneous items pertaining to the whaling in­ dustry. To the left is an interesting collection of blocks, pulleys, shieves, etc., large and small; scales of various sizes, the largest of which was used on a wharf for weighing whale bone, and crude work benches ("horses") for "shaving" and "cutting." To the right are oil barrels cr "casks" which saw plenty of use many years ago.

One can visualize the size of a whaleship's hold when it is said that the average ship came home carrying from two to three hundred casks of different sizes.

At the far end of this entrance way is a gray shingled exter­ ior wall and window of a shop, the beginning of the "whale craft shops." Passing through the doorway one enters a different world where each exhibit tells, though the words are unspoken, its own story of the past.

23

The Shipsmith's Shop This is the first shop on the right: In such a shop blacksmiths forged and fashioned the "irons" commonly called "harpoons", blubber spades, hooks, knives; in fact all manner of iron work needed for the ships. The giant-sized bellows, suspended from the ceiling, was used for many years by George W. Winslow in his shop at the corner of Broad and Easy Streets and by his successor John C. Jones. There is a large assortment of tongs, hammers, molds for bolts and screws, calipers, and miscellaneous irons. Most of them were used in the Thomas Warren blacksmith shop on South Water Street and Aquila Cormie's shop on Straight Wharf.

Leaning against a side wall are two large iron "knees"—rare relics which securely anchored the brick try-works to the ship's top deck. The anvil, tri-pod metal rest, tools, etc., are all relics of the past. The wooden pen or box at the end of the forge was filled with water into which the smith plunged the hot irons, such as a harpoon on which he was working to temper it. Hang­ ing on the wall is a leather apron without which no "smithy" could do his work and on a grimy shelf on the forge chimney is the smithy's old clay pipe. Below it is the old tin box holding soda to be sprinkled on red hot iron in tempering it.

HISTORIC NANTUCKET

The Whaleboat Shop

This shop is to the left of the entrance and directly opposite to the shipsmith's shop. Here is shown a whale boat in the making —one-half size—three feet in beam and 15 feet long. The oak keel, stem and stern posts are in place and five molds are set up across the keel ready for planking. The boat is planked over these molds and the ribs are steamed, bent, and fitted inside the boat later.

The timbers were made usually of white oak, white cedar, and white pine. The seams were reinforced on the inside with narrow battens.

Along the back wall of the boat shop is shown a small brick furnace which held an iron kettle filled with water. This pro­ duced steam which was carried by the short pipe to the wooden steam box directly above the furnace, in which the planks were steamed. When removed the planks then could be readily bent in the desired shape.

At the left end of the shop are boat davits and cranes for suspending the boats alongside the ship. At the further end is the work bench, vise, tools, etc. A painting shows a finished boat

on a gear, ready for delivery to the ship. Another picture shows an old shop with a whale boat in the making. It helps to verify that this shop replica, as arranged, is sypical of the whale boat shop in Nantucket in the golden days of whaling.

Because of its never to be forgotten and invaluable contri­ bution to whaling and the preservation of the lives of the men who pursued the whale, the American whale boat deserves a few his­ torical comments. It is said to have been modelled after the In­ dian canoe and has been called the best sea boat designed by man. The boats ranged in length from 28 to 30 feet with a beam of five and a half to six and a half feet. The oars were long, the steering oar being about 20 to 21 feet, the harpoon and after oar 16 feet, tub and bow oar 17 feet, and midship oar 18 feet. One long and two short oars were pulled on the starboard side, against two medium length oars on the port side. One oarsman to each thwart were staggered, with each sitting well away from his oarlock, in­ stead of in the middle of the boat, to balance the great length of the oars.

Each whale boat carried a crew of six men. Whaleships car­ ried seven boats, five on davits ready to chase whales, and two spare boats overhead on the after-deck. A real, full-sized, fullyequipped, ready-for-launching whale boat is on exhibit in Sander­ son Hall on the second floor directly above the whale boat shop.

Sail Loft This exhibit is on the right hand side of the passageway in the section next beyond the shipsmith's shop. Prominent in this exhibit as in every sail loft, is the sail maker's bench, a simple, crude, low, board bench partly covered with a piece of old canvas. These benches were treated with distinct reverence and handed down traditionally from one sail maker to another. Wooden fids are in the rack and a leather "palm," worn in the palm of the hand, lies alongside together with a needle case — tools which were used by Robert Ratliffe, shipwrecked sailor, who remained in Nantucket and is buried in Old North Cemetery.

The winch on the wall and the hanging rope ends with metal snaps were used to keep the sail tight while working on it and roping it. Various types of clew irons for corners of sails, masthoops, and other items of interest and the different sizes of rop­ ing used in sail making are displayed.

26

HISTORIC NANTUCKET

Rigging Loft This exhibit is found next beyond the sail loft for its work of producing the ship's rigging is closely related to the products of the latter. For a better understanding of the rigger's work and its importance a few explanatory comments are offered. The rig­ ging of a ship includes all the ropes and chains used to support or operate her masts, yards, booms, gaffs, sails, etc. It is of two kinds, standing rigging and running rigging.

Standing rigging is semi-permanent and chiefly consists of supports to the masts such as shrouds, stays, back stays, etc.

When once in position these are not moved except when they need adjustment or removal. Yards, gaffs, and booms have some stand­ ing rigging for their support or for other purposes. Hemp rope tarred was usually used. It was put through a process of "worm­ ing" (putting marline between strands) ; "parceling" (wrapping with tarred or painted canvas, and "serving" (winding tight with marline or spun yarn) which made finished hemp rigging.

Some chain also was used.

Running rigging comprises the moving or movable ropes

HISTORY MAKING EVENTS

27

used to operate the yards, gaffs, booms, and sails, or to raise and lower the upper masts; to hoist weights such as supplies, whale oil casks, and whale blubber while "cutting in," and to lower and raise the whale boats. Such ropes were of manila fibre and untarred hemp. The most important ropes of the running rigging were the braces (used to swing the yards to keep them properly pointed) ; the halliards (to hoist the yards and sails), and the gear attached to sails such as sheets, clewlines, bunt lines, tacks, etc.

The rigger's bench stands in the middle of the loft, with vise attached for holding rope and with wooden and metal fids handy, all is ready for splicing rope. A "serving board" lies on the bench ready for use after the splicing. Tall wooden fids standing on the floor are ready for making eye splices in ropes. Two boatswain (bo'sn) chairs; dead eyes of all sizes; fair leaders; shieves; mast and sail hoops; big and small sister hooks; round trucks, and all manner and sizes of blocks, hooks, and ring irons are on display.

Coils of various types of hemp rope used hang from the ceiling on wooden spindles.

The rigger's work if not deftly, skillfully, and well done would more likely than not have led to the untimely end of a ship if its rigging failed to hold in times of storm. The importance placed upon the rigger's workmanship is manifest.

The Cooperage This shop, one of the largest of the exhibits, extends 22 feet across the end of the cellar. Here one sees many special tools such as a variety of circular planes, wooden mallets, bung hole borers, special cutting irons, measuring sticks, a shaving horse and a cutting block. A six foot carpenter's plane supported at one end by two pegged legs with its knife on the upper side so that the wood to be planed could be readily drawn over the plane, clearly shows how this tool was used. The large fireplace is a rep­ lica of the type used to heat the wood to permit bending in the making of casks and to char the inside of the casks. At the far end is a finished cask and adjacent the staves, heads and hoops of one knocked down.

The making of the casks was an art. They were entirely hand made and shaped so accurately as to curve and angle of their edges as to permit their being taken apart and stowed aboard ship, each in a bundle. These were opened and the casks set up by the ship's cooper as needed. Flags or rushes were put between

28

HISTORIC NANTUCKET

the seams to provide caulking. Stowing the broken down casks in bundles called "shooks" and assembling them as needed per­ mitted a ship to carry the makings of many more casks than her hold could store when assembled. Thus when the hold capacity was nearly reached shipments were made to the home port by other ships with available space. This made possible successful voyages running up to four years or more and increased the profit of the voyage well above what it would have been if limited to one shipload.

The staves of the casks were of one inch white oak, split by hand with the grain, not sawed as in ordinary barrel making methods. The largest casks were over five feet long and four feet across the head, weighing when full of oil about one ton.

The average ship had a carrying capacity of about 300 casks of different sizes. After the oil was stowed down in the hold, water was poured over the casks several times a week to prevent shrink­ age and resulting leakage.

Of special interest is the old black wooden weather vane, nailed to the back wall of the shop. This vane, for many years, was atop of "The Big Shop" inseparably linked with the annals

HISTORY MAKING EVENTS

29

of the Island. "The Big- Shop" was built originally about 1800

by Hiram Folger on the land bounded by Friends Burying Grounds, Saratoga Street, Milk Street and "a way". George Coffin who started as an apprentice in "The Big Shop" subsequently became its owner.

While the manufacture of whale boats, casks and candle boxes was ostensibly the business of the shop, numerous other branches of industry were interspersed. In addition it was always a rendezvous for men of the western part of the town repre­ senting all shades of political and religious belief and non-belief but all of whom believed in free speech and plenty of it. Fierce and hot debates frequently shaped the poling of town meeting and on one occasion in 1841 a memorable anti-slavery convention attended by persons of national repute, besides local sympa­ thizers, was held within its walls and under its protection.

Such was the life of "The Big Shop" until the early spring of 1867 when its owner came home, retired in usual health but "quietly passed from earthly sleep to that which knows no wak­ ing". But "The Big Shop" still stands even though converted to a private home. Across the street the shadow or memory of George Coffin is still very much alive for there stands the dwelling house erected by him as a family home and still owned and occu­ pied by a direct descendant who is responsible for the black weather vane presiding again over a "Big Shop".

Retracing one's steps to the entrance way there is seen a small open section on the right hand side between the back wall of the cooper shop and the whale boat shop. Above the casks stored in the space are two massive timbers crudely hand hewn.

Each measures approximately 16 inches by 1,8 inches and is 22 feet long. At the far end these timbers are set in two blocks, each made of heavier timbers set in the ground and extending through the floor above. These are the balancing under pinnings and supports of the spermaceti press, the upper part of which is to be seen in Sanderson Hall on the floor above.

Counting Room Vault Doors Our tour of "The Whale Craft Shops" is now complete but let us return to the Museum main entrance hall where one will find another new and interesting exhibit in the "Whaling Mer­ chant's Counting Room" which is located directly behind the reception desk. It is a massive old fashioned steel vault door and

30

HISTORIC NANTUCKET

a lighter door behind it which ostensibly protects the merchant's records and valuables. Inspection shows there are two locks for which three giant bronze keys, hanging by the door, must be used to open the upper lock and two for the lower.

Stored for many years in Straight Wharf warehouse, history says that these doors were those of the vault of the Manufacturers and Mechanics Bank which occupied the building, destroyed in the great fire of 1846, at the northeast corner of Main and Federal Streets.

Fate plays strange tricks despite man's best laid plans, for here was a vault which had survived the fire; which required three keys to open it; with each key entrusted to a separate man, all three of whom had to be present to open it, and yet, a few months before the fire, the bank was found to be insolvent with its capital, surplus and undivided profits of $130,000 apparently vanished. This led to charges and counter-charges and court trials which ended in the liquidation of the bank but with the recovery of part of the lost assets. The doors, however, are excellent ex­ amples of the hard steel vault doors used in business and banking offices at that time.

31

Tools and Equipment

One may naturally wonder as to the source from which the large collection of tools and equipment were obtained. The answer is two-fold but simple.

First; a thorough search was made of surplus material stored in the Association's archives which produced an unex­ pected amount of material for which heretofore there had been no call because of no related exhibits. At the same time exhibits in our various buildings were reviewed, which brought to light numerous items which could be more appropriately displayed in the Whale Craft Shops.

Second; a word-of-mouth campaign was started for dona­ tions of tools and equipment from Island residents. Many leads developed and were followed up with most gratifying results, for almost 275 individual items were obtained from this source.

Additional items are being donated as news of the exhibits spreads and it is hoped that this interest will continue and provide the craft shops with many interesting additional exhibits.

Tools and equipment placed as exhibits in the shops have for the most part been casually stored away as might be expected for many years, without any attention as to preservation. Most of them need treatment to preserve them against further de­ preciation which it was not possible to give them before setting up the craft shops if they were to open this year. It is planned to do this work in future off-season months and at the same time to label the various tools and pieces of equipment so visitors may identify them and better undertsand their various uses.

Finale

For many years past our Whaling Museum has been recog­ nized far and wide as one of the most complete and outstanding exhibits of its kind and, as evidenced by paid admissions, its appeal to the public grows steadily from year to year. The addi­ tion of the five Whale Craft Shops fills to a large extent a void in the picture and history of whaling not heretofore covered by the exhibits of the Museum.

The initial reaction of the public is not only one of approval but of real interest in the various crafts. Thus two objectives have been accomplished: first — to enhance and broaden the Museum's appeal and interest to the public, and second, to

32

provide for posterity a true record of five of the most important businesses and crafts collateral to whaling, which were important parts of the business and personal life of Nantucket's historical past.

The Folger Franklin Seat and Memorial Boulder

BY DR. WILLIAM E. GARDNER

On the road to Madaket, less than a mile from the Monument, is the Abiah Folger Franklin Fountain. Erected in 1900 by the Daughters of the American Revolution, it is a tribute to Abiah Folger, born near this spot, a daughter of Peter and Mary (Morrils) Folger and mother of Benjamin Franklin.

Looking across the pasture to the North we see a knoll with a wide spreading seat and a boulder recently placed as a part of the Three Hundredth Anniversary Celebration of the First Settlement of the Island. The boulder, bearing a large bronze tablet, is a symbol of the stalwart character of Peter and Mary, and the Seat is an invitation to meditate on their gift to America. *

Who was Peter Folger, the grandfather of Benjamin Frank­

Why did the first settlers want him as one of them, and give him this land with other rights?

The only book to answer these questions is: A GRAND­ FATHER FOR BENJAMIN FRANKLIN, published 1900 and written by a Nantucket woman, Mrs. Florence Bennett Anderson, now a resident of Walla Walla, Washington.

Peter came from the colony at Watertown, Massachusetts, about 1642. He was the "right-hand man" of Thomas Mayhew who had bought the islands south of New England. Peter's value to Thomas Mayhew was his ability to undertake and finish

34

HISTORIC NANTUCKET

any task, from interpreter and preacher to the Indians, to build­ ing a mill or repairing a clock.

When the Coffin-Macy-Starbuck group from the Merrimac Valley began negotiations about buying Nantucket, Thomas Mayhew was nearing seventy and very dependent upon his "righthand man". Peter Folger, therefore, became, as Mrs. Anderson calls him, "the middle man" in the negotiations for Nantucket.

From the beginning of the trade there was one difficulty that no one could settle but Peter. The buyers of Nantucket wanted no trouble with the Indians. If Thomas Mayhew could not demonstrate that he could buy land from them there would be no trade. Many months passed between the decision to buy the Island and the signing of the deed of July 2, 1659; during that time Peter had many "powwows" before he could convince the Indians that the coming of the white men would be a blessing; and even then he was unable to secure signatures of the leading chiefs, Wauwinet and Wanackmamak, for they signed no deeds until ten years later.

Here is the first Indian deed secured on Nantucket by Peter Folger which opened the way for the deed of July 2, 1659. It is signed by two sachems (under-chiefs) and probably with the consent of one or both of the higher chiefs.

The land sold is the "neck" which extends into Hummock Pond and is given the title, on Ewer's map: "Nanahuma's Neck".

The old deed bears a picture of the land and the "marks" of the two sachems. It also bears the signatures of John Coleman, Thomas Macy and Tristram Coffin as witnesses and these signa­ tures are evidence that the purchasers took no chances and saw and conversed with the Indians who sold the land.

"June 20, 1659.

"This doth witness that we Nickanoose of Nan­ tucket, sachem, and Nanahuma of Nantucket, sachem, have sold unto Thomas Mayhew of the Vineyard, the plain at the west end of Nantucket that is according to the figure underwritten to him and his heirs forever etc., etc., etc.

(Nantucket Registry, page 91, Book 4.)

Notice the date of the deed: June 20, 1659.

Recall the date of the Nantucket deed: July 2, 1659.

HISTORY MAKING EVENTS

Only twelve days elapsed before representatives of the Marrimac Valley group were in the Vineyard and the official deed of the sale of the Island of Nantucket was signed, sealed, and delivered. ^ % H* Two years passed before there was a real community on the Island. They were busy months for all and Peter Folger especially.

The coming of the big sloops with lumber, furniture, live stock and new faces stirred Peter's curiosity and his craftsmanship and caused him to spend more time on Nantucket and give the impression that he cared more for the excitement of the new settlement than for the old.

Thomas Mayhew, nearly seventy years old, resented not only the change in Peter's interests but more especially the appeal for Peter's judgment, his suggestions and decisions. Even the Indians no longer waited on Mayhew's authority; they had in­ vented a new name for Peter. When translated it meant, "NewOld-Chief".

Peter was also disturbed by some evidences of disagreements among the Nantucket settlers and groups were forming, some wanting one kind of local government and others a different kind.

The crisis came when the Vineyard church doubted Peter's orthodoxy. He asked permission to "lay down his creed" for ob­ servation. Their doubts were not removed. This was the last straw.

He packed up his family and joined the Roger Williams settlement in Rhode Island.

He was not happy there, but he was happy when he received the following with all the signatures attached: "Nantucket, 4th July, 1663.

"These presents witnesseth that we whose names are underwritten do give and grant unto peter foulger, half a share of accommodations on the land above sayd, that is to say half so muchone of the twenty purchasers, both in respect of upland, medow, wood, timber and other appurtances belonging to him and his heirs forever on con­ dition that he come to inhabit on the island aforesayd with his family within one year after the date hereof.

There is much more to the story than the above records, but enough has been written to stir the imagination.

Seated on the original "grant of land" given to Peter Folger by the first settlers, reading the inscription on the bronze tablet we will feel admiration, the beginning of inspiration.

Here he lived with his seven daughters and two sons.

Here he labored with and for the Indians.

Here he thought out and wrote his long doggerel verse TOLERATION, A Looking Glass for the Times.

Here he inspired the settlers with the principles of the Free State.

Here he set the example of honesty and industry.

From here he was dragged to a prison near No Bottom Pond because he would not obey an illegal govern­ ment.

Bay State Historical League Spring Meeting REPORTED BY NANCY S. ADAMS

Your delegate registered promptly at the opening of the Meeting of the League at 10 o'clock, Saturday, April 25, 1959, at the Jackson Homestead, Newton, Massachusetts.

There are many relics in this house that are well worth seeing. Those which interested me most were a very pretty model, such as used in shops, displaying a beautiful old gown and placed in a way to appear to be welcoming guests; how nice this would be for our 1800 House. A weaving room had a small loom set up and in one corner of the room a glass-covered, strongly lighted case proved to be a deep well completely lined with cobble­ stones.

In the morning there was a bus tour of the city and we visited the Prof. Dewing House, 1732; and the Hammond House, 1645. In the former house the family Thanksgiving dinners are still cooked in the old fireplace.

In the afternoon Mr. Winthrop Haines presided at the meet­ ing and introduced Mrs. F. Leslie Ford, Chairman of the Board of Trustees. She welcomed the guests and introduced Miss Ade­ laide, president of the Friends of Homestead House. The house is owned by the city but the Association supplies volunteer host­ esses and their costumes, and care of the grounds. They have about 5000 visitors each year.

It was a pleasure to attend this meeting as a delegate from Nantucket Historical Association.

(Editor's note — Mrs. Adam's complete report is on file).

Whaling Seminars On July 15, 16, and 17, and on August 12, 13, and 14, well known authorities are being brought to the Island to speak on "Whaling" and related subjects.

Edouard A. Stackpole, Curator of Mystic Seaport, will speak on the topic, "The Great Pursuit — Nantucket and the Whale."

William H. Tripp, former Curator, Old Dartmouth Whaling Museum, will illustrate his lecture, "Nantucket's Shore Whaling", with slides.

Herbert C. Darbee, Assistant Curator, Old Sturbridge Vil­ lage, will speak on the subject, "Problems and Proceeds of the Chase". This lecture will include a brief history of the difficulties involved in the whaling ventures and the material gains derived from the unmatched toils.

In the second series of lectures, Mr. Tripp will repeat his lecture for the benefit of those who missed the first, and Dr. William E. Gardner will speak on "Nantucket's Early History".

R. C. Weaver, Vice-President of the Plymouth Cordage Com­ pany, will illustrate his lecture on "Rope Making" with sound film and Technicolor.

The lectures will be held in the main auditorium of the Unitarian Church, "The Church with the Golden Dome", at 8:30 p.m., and there will be a charge of 50 cents.
