Townwide Celebration September 24
To Rededicate Bailey’s Hill Gazebo
A townwide celebration to mark the dedication of the restored Bailey’s Hill Gazebo
is scheduled for Saturday, September 24th, from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., in Bailey’s Hill
Park. The free celebration, sponsored by the Town of Nahant and the Nahant Woman’s
Club, will include music, food, period costumes, and many exciting activities, including
a children’s art exhibit and contest. Rain date is Sunday, September 25th.
This dedication is actually a rededication. In 1976, the Nahant Woman’s Club
secured a grant to construct the original Gazebo. The original Bailey’s Hill Gazebo was
dedicated in 1976, the nation’s bicentennial year. 1976 also marked the first visit of the
Tall Ships off the shores of Nahant. Over the years, the Gazebo has become a true
Nahant landmark and has been used for band concerts, picnics, children’s activities,
community events, wedding ceremonies, and as a gathering place for town people who
enjoy the park. After almost 30 years, the gazebo is in poor condition and poses safety
concerns.
Three years ago, the Nahant Woman’s Club initiated numerous fundraising projects,
including the 2003 kitchen tour, to assist in the rebuilding of the Gazebo. Funds raised
total $8,000. A check for the final installment of $4,500 was presented to the Town of
Nahant by Past President Calantha Sears, current President Marrit Hastings, and Treasurer Polly Bradley. Town Administrator Mark Cullinan accepted the check, with thanks,
on behalf of the Town. This gift was in addition to the $3,500 donated earlier. A $10,000
Community Preservation Grant was approved in the 2005 Town Meeting to pay for the
renovation work. Architect John Falat created the improved design for the Gazebo, and
work was begun in late July, by the firm selected by the Town, JP Construction. The cost
of the renovations totals $18,000.
The art exhibit and contest, for all Nahant children under 12, will be one of the
highlights of the rededication. Its theme is: “Things I like to do best in Nahant.” Entries
must be brought to Bailey’s Hill by 8:00 a.m., on the day of the event. The Nahant
Woman’s Club will also be celebrating the 110th anniversary of its founding.
The Nahant Woman’s Club presents a check for
$4,500 to the Town of Nahant for reconstruction of the
Bailey’s Hill Gazebo. Left to right: Calantha Sears,
outgoing president of the Woman’s Club; Marrit
Hastings, incoming president; Mark Cullinan, Nahant
Town Administrator, who accepted on behalf of the
Town; and Polly Bradley, treasurer. This check is in
addition to the $3,500 donated earlier by the Woman’s
Club, making a total of $8,000. A $10,000 Community
Preservation Grant approved at the 2005 Town Meeting
will complete the payment for the renovation work.

Nahant Public Library Presents
The Places You’ll Go!
The Nahant Country Club
Welcomes All
by Dan deStefano
The Nahant Public Library will close its Summer
Reading Program with a presention of Parents’ Choice
Award winners, Davis Bates and Roger Tincknell, in a
participatory program of stories and songs for all ages.
“The Places You’ll Go: Exploring Reading in Story and
Song,” will involve the audience in a variety of cultural
traditions. The stories told include international folk tales,
just-so stories and stories from Davis’s own family. The
songs are accompanied by the Aztec rainstick, Inca flute,
Russian balalaika, African drum, guitar, mandolin and
banjo. The artists include plenty of sing-along, dancing,
and movement.
Bates and Tincknell combine more than six decades
of experience performing for families throughout the
Northeast. They are known for their strong vocal harmonies, humor, and warm, participatory performing style.
Pete Seeger has praised Bates as “thoughtful, creative,
human and a fantastic storyteller.” His traditional style of
telling stories is a refreshing change from passive television and video. Tincknell is am accomplished musician,
singer, and songwriter, a master of the guitar, banjo,
mandolin, bazouki and harmonica.
“The Places You’ll Go” will take place at the Nahant
Public Library at 2:00 p.m., on Wednesday, August 17th,
2005. The Library will open at 1:30, in order to accommodate the audience. For more information, call 781-5810306. Be sure not to miss this wonderful, family-oriented,
entertaining event!

Uncork a new season with a champagne reception at
the Nahant Country. You’re all invited!
How much do you know about the Nahant Country
Club? Why should you join? Find out at the club’s champagne reception for prospective members September 16th,
6:00 to 8:00 p.m., at—where else?—the Nahant Country
Club, 280 Nahant Road.
In addition to tennis and platform tennis, the club is
planning a full schedule of members-only social events
this fall, winter and spring. There will be several Don’t
Cook Fridays, the very popular Friday night suppers held
in the club’s pub. The club will also host a Super Bowl
party complete with wide-screen TV, a kids’ Christmas
party and a kids’ Easter egg hunt. In addition, club members will receive a discount to the Visions of Nahant art
show and wine-tasting and to Blues Night, the coolest
night of the year.
The whole idea is to make the club once again the
social center of Nahant, a place to relax with old friends
and make new ones. Anyone can join the Nahant Country
Club. A social membership is only $50 per family. Tennis
and platform tennis memberships are equally reasonable.
Learn more about the club and become a member at
the champagne reception. Admission is free and everyone
is welcome. If you’re looking for a way to meet your
neighbors, or if you used to be a member, but no longer
are, this is your chance to learn all about the new, reinvigorated Nahant Country Club. Reservations are required; call Kellie Frary at 581-1453 to make them.
Thank You
Like many who viewed the Nahant Historical
Society’s exhibit of paintings, featuring our shoreline, I
purchased the catalog. Besides the excellent photographs
of the art work, I was especially pleased to read again the
eloquent and moving introduction, “Nahant’s Rhythmic
Flavors” by Daniel deStefano; it appears in the book, as it
does in the show, at the beginning.
This sets the tone for a walk through a century-and-ahalf’s artistic expressions. The words match the mood so
well, you may do as Dan suggests, when you finish the
book, walk on the beach.
The cliche “If you liked the movie—you’ll love the
book,” comes to mind. If you enjoyed the exhibit, you’ll
love the catalog. Thanks to everyone who assisted in this
special cultural happening.

Three performances of Shakespeare’s “Romeo and
Juliet” will be staged by Pastimes Theatre, on August
26th, 27th and 28th, at 6:00 p.m., at the American Legion
Park, on Broadway in Revere. Roberta Payne-Strange, of
Nahant, will perform in the play.
Bertie is the daughter of Nicholas Strange and
Wendy Payne, a Nahant Woman’s Club board member.
Bertie, and one other child, will join a troupe of
Shakespearian actors to play jointly the role of Chorus.
Both children have a few lines, enjoy much stage time and
help with narration. The performance is outdoors and
attendees may bring lawn chairs, if desired. Admission is
free.
In September, Bertie Payne-Strange will be performing in “The Boston Miesner Slams” (the youngest performer ever accepted into the ensemble). In January and
February 2006, Bertie will be playing MaryAnnie in,
“They Named Us Mary,” at The Boston Playwright’s
Theatre. Currently, Bertie is filming her first feature film,
“Public Enemy Number One,” slated to be released early
2006.
The group Pastimes brings cherished literature and
historical periods to life, through its presentations, including traditional theatre, interactive theatre (which immerses
the audience in the environment portrayed) and festivals,
such as Robin Hood Faire.
Pastimes says, “By a special grant from the Massachusetts Cultural Council, Pastimes presents the classic
tale of boundless love amid ancient hatreds, Romeo and
Juliet. Experience romance, intrigue, swordplay, raucous
comedy, and of course, heartbreaking tragedy.”
For more information about the Revere performance
of Romeo and Juliet, email Wendy Payne at [email protected].

Nahant Junior Invitational Tennis Tournament 2005
submitted by Mary and Dunbar Livingston, Tournament Directors
The Nahant Junior Invitational Tennis Tournament was held at the Nahant Country
Club on June 27th, June 28th and June 29th (Mon., Tues., Wed.), this year. The Tournament is held under the auspices of the Country Club Tennis Committee. It is for boys and
girls ages 10 and under, 12 and under, and 14 and under, in the categories of singles and
doubles. Mixed doubles were held for 12 and under and 14 and under players. The
tournament directors are Dunbar and Mary Livingston. The tournament was kept on
schedule by starting players at 8:00 a.m. and allowing for a one hour, mid-day break.
Fortunately, the weather was warm and great for tennis.
Very nice trophies from Glass Dimensions in Essex, inscribed with the Nahant
150th Anniversary Logo, went to the winners and finalists. The trophies were also
inscribed with the legend “Birthplace of American Tennis”, honoring Nahant for that
distinction
This year is the sixth year of the tournament and it is more successful than ever.
The tournament was held over three full days and attracted 70 players, the largest group
of players we have ever had, representing a substantial increase over the 52 players, who
entered last year. The 70 players accounted for 139 entries in 14 separate events.
Players were from the following clubs: the Nahant Country Club, the Cary Street
Club, the Eastern Yacht Club, the Corinthian Yacht Club, The Beach Club, Bass River
Tennis Club, Northeast Tennis Club, North Shore Tennis Club and the Essex County
Club.
Nahant Country Club junior players were also hosted at the Eastern Yacht Club, to
participate in challenge matches against the Eastern, on Friday, July 1st, after the tournament. This is the first time Nahant has been invited and we would like to make it an
annual event.
We are grateful for the support of Country Club tennis players for their help during
the tournament. Special thanks goes to Michael Flynn, Tennis Committee Chair, for all
his help and support during the tournament. Thanks also to John Falat and Bobby Kelly,
of the Country Club Tennis Committee, for help with setting up and taking down the
tent. Also thanks to Dave Marshall of the Tennis Committee for help in monitoring the
courts for the younger players. Parents of some of the players very generously donated
some treats.
We plan to put this tournament on next year and look forward to your continued
support.

One-Pitch A Huge Success
by Carol Hanson
The 8th Annual softball tournament, sponsored by The Friends of Earl, held on July
2nd, was a huge success. Many people turned out to celebrate the strength of Gary
“Earl” Hanson and his wife, Cindi, and daughter, Mariah, in the face of their struggle to
live with the challenges of Earl’s ALS. The day was beautiful, smiles abounded and
money was raised, to help them keep up with the daily expenses that aren’t covered by
social security.
Raffles were donated and sponsor donations were made by many individuals and
businesses in and around town. As one of the organizers of the event, I send out a warm
thank-you to all of these great, giving people. Your kindnesses are much appreciated!

Stay Hydrated!
by Sallee Slagle, Director, Dance Dimensions
Exercising in the
summer can dehydrate
you quicker than you
think. You may not even
feel thirsty. Water intake
is a year-round concern.
We all know the general
8 glasses of 8-ounces-aday. Few of us actually
drink enough water,
anyway, so when it is hot
and we are exercising we
need to be even more
aware of water and fluid
intake. Endurance and
performance depend on
proper hydration before,
during and after summer
exercise, activities and
sports. During the day,
don’t wait until you’re
thirsty to drink water.
Many experts aggree that
you are already slightly
dehydrated when thirst is
signalled. Drink on a
schedule: Add a glass of
water every morning,

drink one before each
meal and one before bed.
Find other ways to
include water regularly.
To prepare for activities
and prevent dyhydration,
the American Dietetic
Association (ADA)
recommends at least 16
ounces of fluids, 2 hours
before and again, 15-20
minutes before exercising. During exercise, you
should drink more water
every 15-20 minutes.
Your body sweats to
cool down. Even if you
don’t see the sweat dripping, don’t be fooled, it
often evaporates quickly
in the heat. As you sweat
you loose fluids and
minerals, like salt and
potassium. To replace
fluids, water is still best
and fastest. Drinks with
too much sugar (glucose,
sucrose, fructose, etc.,

more than 3%) are absorbed much slower than
plain water, or diluted
juices and drinks. So after
exerting yourself in exercise, sports, or just play,
drink water first, then
have a sports drink, or
juice, 15-20 minutes later.
You may occassionally need to replace
salt and pottassium lost in
sweating, especially if
you’re exerting longer
than an hour. Sports
drinks will help to replenish these, or you may
consume foods high in
sodium. Our diets often
contain enough sodium,
so this is not usually a
major concern.
Carbohydrates are
needed to refuel your
muscles, but unless you
exercise intensely or
more than once a day,
these are sufficiently
maintained by eating a
balanced diet. Your body
will replenish itself with
your next meal or snack.
Protein is an important building block, too.
Most experts recommend
eating carbohydrates and
proteins in a 4:1 ratio, 4
servings of carbohydrates, such as vegetables, fruits and whole
grains, to 1 of protein
such as meat, fish, poultry and legumes.
A well balanced diet
and sufficiently hydrated
body will perform well,
even in the summer. Do
not overexert in the sun,
as your body needs to
cool down by circulating
blood to the surface.
Increased demand by
muscles can cause overheating, dehydration,
headache, nausea and
heat exhaustion.
Be sure to hydrate.
Remember caffeine and
alcohol dehydrate you
even more. Drink plenty
of water and enjoy the
summer fun in the sun.

Recent HOOMPA Sighting at the Great Wall of China
submitted by Mary Jo Ludke
STEP INTO A
BETTER BODY
Photo at right: Caitlin Ludke (R) meets with Second
Grader Shen Fang Jun, in Ningbo, China.
Caitlin, along with her 4th Grade teachers and classmates at the Johnson School, inspired the entire school
community to raise nearly $2,000 to support children living
in orphanages in China. The school, in conjunction with Our
Chinese Daughters Foundation’s Orphanage Support Project
(www.OCDF.org), will enable Fang Jun to attend a local public school outside the
orphanage for the next two years and will provide him with books, a school uniform,
winter clothing, school supplies, personal care items, an eye exam, and music lessons.
Fang Jun is studying English and will write back and forth to the Johnson School students. Although schooling is provided within the orphanage, integrating with the outside
community will allow Fang Jun to have play dates, join clubs and sports, and develop
lifelong friendships and connections. These will all give him a chance at a better future.
Additional funds have been directed to the medical supply needs of a foster home near
Beijing, which services 80 children in need of special surgeries.
Caitlin wishes to express her heartfelt thanks to the Johnson School Community for
their generous and enthusiastic support.

Preparing Your Boat for Sale
by Rob Scanlan, Master Marine Surveyor`
There is a strong financial incentive to prepare a boat for sale. Detailing a boat is
the single most important investment of time, energy and money a seller can make,
because a clean and shiny boat sells faster and for a lot more money. I strongly recommended that a seller enlist professional assistance to do a quality job. Sellers that opt to
do it themselves, should consider the following tips:
1. Wash and wax the exterior, polish any metal, refinish any woodwork, repair, or
replace, canvas and cushions.
2. Clean the interior thoroughly, steam-clean, or replace, carpets, clean upholstery
or re-upholster. Unwanted odors must be removed, especially from the head, so get some
air fresheners and disinfectant. Any personal effects, or items that make a boat look
cluttered, should be removed.
3. After the initial cleanup, schedule regular wash downs, to keep a boat in top
shape. Consider cleaning the exterior/interior every two weeks and the bottom should be
clean of any marine growth and a new application of bottom paint.
In addition, a seller should consider having me conduct a marine survey, before
launching a marketing campaign. Knowing the strengths and weaknesses of a boat will
save time, energy and money later. I can determine if a boat needs repairs and furnish a
list of items that need to be fixed, for the boat to be in top condition. Buyers are looking
for a boat that has been well-maintained, with receipts and maintenance log available; so
uncovering any potential structural or mechanical problems early, gives you the opportunity to have them corrected and command your selling price.
Making any necessary mechanical repairs, at the beginning of the sales process, will
prevent costly delays during the negotiations and closing. Boat owners incur monthly
expenses such as mortgage payments, insurance, slip and/or storage fees and maintenance. Also, non-use can be more costly than using a boat regularly, which increases the
likelihood of additional repairs. Consider the following tips:
1. A boat must be in top mechanical condition, before launching a serious marketing campaign. Have the engine(s) and generator checked out by me and make all necessary repairs. Clean and paint the engine(s) and steam-clean the bilge.
2. All equipment, wiring systems and electronics must be in good working order.
Repair, or replace, items that are not. Also, ensure that all safety items, such as navigation lights, horns and bilge pumps, are in good working order and all USCG safety gear
is current.
Remember, all offers are subject to a marine survey, sea trial and mechanical
survey. Buyers must be satisfied by a boat’s condition, performance and eye-appeal, to
complete the purchase.
Please call, or email me, if additional information is needed about preparing a boat
for sale.

Useless Information
by Ray Barron
Is Bob Lobel of WBZ-TV
Scoring in Nahant?
Sports newsman, Bob Lobel of WBZ-TV is making
news about his on-camera actions and his squiring around
with a single mother from Nahant. Lobel’s wife Suzanne
McCarthy is standing by her man. Lobel’s ex-wife Susan
Wornick of WCVB-TV thinks Lobel’s “goofball” act is
due to someone who is experiencing personal pain. Huh?
So who is the Nahant woman Lobel is seeing?
Speaking of sports, I believe it was the brilliant Mary
Dill, of Cary Street, who said, “The only draw back in
being a good sport is that you have to lose to prove it.”
As Mary’s illustrious husband Dan will tell you, a
well-informed American knows the lineup of baseball
teams and about half the words of the “Star Spangled
Banner.”
Lowell Gray Is Selling Out!
The only home in Nahant valued in the millions is
owned by Lowell Gray of Swallow Cave Road. His land
and building is valued at $4,055,400! Well, his spacious
home is up for grabs for $9,500,000! Yes, that is
$9,500,000 million! What you get for your money is a
“prestigious villa” on 1.89 acres of paradise. The price
also includes a deeded, uninhabited, one-acre island.
In brief, Lowell Gray, 45, the father of four daughters, purchased the oceanfront property five years ago. He
is a Swampscott native and once the property is sold he
will return to live in Swampscott.
So who will be the next owner of Nahant’s highest
assessed home? Tom Cruise? Oprah? Debra Winger?
Jennifer Lopez? Giuseppe Barisano? Dan deStefano?
Greg and Lissa Keene? Bob and Harriet Steeves? Lee
Fox? Larry and Paula Smith? Phil and Pamela Osterlin?
Bob and Peggy Silva? Madonna? Michael Jackson?
Truth About Housework
The amount of housework that American women do
every week, fell from 30 hours to 17.5 hours between
1965 and 1995, while the amount that men do, rose from
4.9 hours to 10 hours a week. Married women estimated
that their husbands did 33 percent of housework, while
their husbands put their share at 42 percent. On average,
according to several studies, men did 39 percent.
The electrifying Ed Poulin, of Irving Way, claims
some husbands help most with the house-cleaning when
they stay away from home.
Ed’s sweet wife, Gayle, a native of New Orleans,
says, “Some women are good housekeepers; others try not
to overwork their vacuum cleaners.”
The alluring Sheila Hambleton, Nahant’s Assistant
Town Assessor, says, “Some husbands are reasonable;
others want their wives to do the housework for twenty
years and still look like the girls they married.”
The captivating Brenda D’Orazio-Cook, of Seaview
Avenue, says, “The only job where the work is steady, but
the pay isn’t, is housework.”
Nahant’s stately Police
Officer, Armand Conti,
reminds us, “Man who
drives like hell is bound to
get there.”
Nahanter’s Thoughts
About Compliments
Cal Hastings, of
Nahant Road, says, “Be
sincere with your compliments. Most people can tell
the difference between
sugar and saccharine.”
Cal’s attractive and
brilliant wife, Marrit, says,
“Compliments are like
perfume: to be inhaled, not
swallowed.”
Henry Hanagan,
Hasting’s friendly neighbor
says, “A compliment a day
keeps divorce, far, far
away.”
Henry’s charming wife
Peg, says, “Nobody has
ever been bored by someone paying them a compliment.”
A secret admirer of
Peg, says, “Peg, you have a
captivating personality. You
are truly an inspiring
woman.”
Nahants’ Brainy
Women
Our gracious Mother
Superior, Jody LaFalce, of
Nahant Road, says, “God
gave eloquence to some,
brains to others.”
Joanna Reardon, of
Nautical Lane, says, “Always remember that a man
is not rewarded for having
brains, but for using them.”
Jayne Solomine, of
Foxhill Road, says, “Use
your brains. It’s the little
things that count.”
Beverly English, of
Little Nahant Road, says,
“A cheap, but top-rate
computer, is the one between your ears.”
Carol Munnelly, of
Castle Road, says, “The
human tongue is only a few
inches from the brain, but
when you listen to some
people talk, they seem
miles apart.”
Jean Hosker, of Valley
Road, says, “There is no
real substitute for brains,
but silence does pretty
well.”

Summer In Nahant
A collaboration of old photographs, letters and memories of those who
lived and resorted on this seaside penninsula before us.
Tudor Estate Had Two
Acre Garden
Frederic Tudor’s first passion was trees, and the more the better. From the
very year his cottage was completed in 1825, he commenced what became a
lifelong campaign to plant trees on treeless Nahant. The fact that the first settlers
had deforested the peninsula so that they could pasture their cattle cut no ice with
Frederic. Similarly, the scoffers who claimed that the salt air would kill all vegetation, including trees, only spurred Frederic on. What greater challenge did he
need? Tell him something couldn’t be done and he instantly set out to do it. He
who had brought ice to the inhabitants of far Hindustan could surely bring leafy
shade to Nahant.
Balm of Gilead trees were the first he planted, some 150 of them. They were
quick growing and offered protection to slower-growing trees. Once started on his
project, he went overboard, as was his manner. By 1832, he had 3,358 trees growing in his nursery. He kept adding new varieties to the stock: black poplars, firs,
elm, oak, hickory, sassafras and beech. Within two years he had some 4,000 trees
in cultivation, a total which he estimated would reach ten miles in length, if
planted in a single row.

The following letter dated 1849 is quoted by
Johnson, and is mostly cited again as follows, for it gives
a good contemporary account of what Tudor was doing:
Among the many beautiful features of Nahant, one
of the most beautiful is the residence of Mr. Tudor. We
called to see his place on the occasion of a recent ride to
our famed and favorite Nahant, and were politely received by our friend Mr. Wm. F. Johnson, to whom we
express our thanks for this attention.
The cottage and garden of Mr. Tudor are well worth
a visit, and certainly deserve a mention to the public.
The cottage is built of stone which was collected at
Nahant, of a coarse or dark granite which is quite abundant there; the roof is covered with hemlock bark, giving
the building an ancient appearance, which seems to be a
taste the proprietor studies.
Mr. Tudor’s garden contains over two acres, and is
inclosed (sic) by a very substantial fence, about seventeen feet high, which not only protects it from intruders,
but prevents in a great measure the effect of the violent
wind. He has a large collection of very fine fruit trees,
many of them beautifully trained on fences, giving them
a very tasteful and ornamental appearance. One cherry
tree, with its branches trained horizontally, covers a
space of over five hundred square feet; some of its
branches are about twenty feet in length, extending each
side of the trunk perfectly straight. The pear trees look
exceedingly well, considering that it is an unfavorable
season for the pear crop in this vicinity, owing to the late
frost in the spring.
His plums are worthy of notice, all looking finely,
and not-withstanding the depredations of the curculio,
many of these trees are loaded with the finest plums.
There are many interesting experiments in shading
trees from the sun in the hottest part of the day, which
have proven quite successful. All his experiments are
tried in the most thorough manner. Among the many
experiemnts is one quite novel of capturing insects; he
has suspended in his trees between two and three hundred small bottles, partly filled with sweetened water,
into which all flies, bugs and moths are enticed and
drowned.
Great quantities have been destroyed in this way.
During two weeks of the dry weather in June there were
captured about five hundred thousand bugs, and in thirtysix hours on the nineteenth and twentieth of June, one
hundred and eight thousand were taken.

Frederic Tudor
The Ice King Cometh
The Ice Entrepreneur
Another figure who appears in Nahant history ...
is Frederic Tudor, who is probably the best known of
all old Nahanters, though only by name to most. He
was aggressive and eccentric, so that he has become a
historic character of the town, the sort of whom many
amusing and interesting stories can be told. His son,
Frederic Tudor, writes of him as follows:
In the earliest years of the century a young man
just entering mercantile life, looking around him with
a beginner’s enthusiasm for unthought-of and cheap
commodities to carry to new and dear markets, lit
upon the ice which in limitless fields clothed his
native lakes in winter. Even at that time, well-to-do
people housed a little ice for summer’s use, and to
him occurred the possibility of transporting this great
absorbent of heat and producer of cold to tropical
latitudes, where its value would be the greatest.
The substance was easily obtained, and to cut it
into blocks convenient for handling cost very little.
An uncertain but probably large part would be lost by
melting: would there be a residue after storage, transportation and handling which could be sold at such a
price that all expenses would be paid and a profit left
over?
The young man who considered this project was
Frederic Tudor, the third son of Colonel William
Tudor, a Revolutionary officer and friend of General
Washington, and a lawyer of eminence. Born in
Boston September 4, 1783, he was scarcely twentyone years of age when he began to ponder the scheme
of a trade in ice, and he had so well satisfied himself
of its feasibility that in 1805 a cargo of ice cut from a
pond on his father’s country place in Saugus was
actually loaded on board a schooner, and , in charge
of himself as owner and supercargo, was shipped to
the island of Martinique.
The project, of which this was but an attempt, a
bare opening of what he calculated would grow to be
a great trade with the Indies, was laughed at by all his
neighbors as a crazy undertaking.

Why do most
furniture manufacturers say “dry
clean only” on their
furniture tags?
NSWER.
Because they think
all cleaning
systems involve
TOO MUCH water
and are concerned
about damage. Our
dry-foam abstraction system
uses DRY-FOAM with only
10% or less of
the water used
in other
methods.
Result? Great
safety; great
cleaning and
fast drying!
