One of the great pleasures of editing this venerable journal is the opportunity to bring you articles that intro- duce us to little known — or even unknown — figures. Chris Baer has a knack for ferreting out interesting characters and in Edson Chick, founder of the short-lived Chick’s Vineyard Haven News, he has found a doozy. Prof. Paul Boyer introduces us to Charles Lyell, once a preeminent Brit- ish geologist and often called the “founder of modern geology.” Boyer fol- lows in Lyell’s footsteps as he explores the geology of the bluff at Lucy Vincent Beach. In this issue we also welcome back frequent contributor Tom Dresser who gives us a concise look at the infamous wreck of the City of Columbus. Finally, Chief Curator Bonnie Stacy brings us in on the high tech spe- cial effects in Richard and Charles Shute’s stereoscopic photographs in an article that first appeared in the Martha’s Vineyard Times.

Serendipity The February 2019 “Marine Hospital” issue of the MVM Quarterly was—like the May 2018 “Edgartown” issue before it—a deliberately designed theme issue, planned for a year or more before it appeared. The current issue, though three of its four stories are centered on Oak Bluffs, and all four unfold in the half-century bracketing 1900, is not. When Andrew Patch approached me last fall, offering to write the first complete history of Oak Bluffs’ last surviving grand hotel, I knew that I wanted to give it the lead position and the cover. May 2019 was, at the time, the first issue where that slot was open. Skip Finley’s portrait of Joseph Dias III— whaling turned businessman, hotelier, and political activist—came later, and the many layers of resonance between the two stories became clear only in the editing process.

    Massachusetts House of Representatives: Upgrading Greater Boston MBTA Rail System St

    Massachusetts House of Representatives: Upgrading Greater Boston MBTA Rail System St. John’s Preparatory School - Danvers, Massachusetts - December 2020 Letter from the Chairs Dear Delegates, My name is Brett Butler. I am a Senior at St. John’s Prep, and I will serve as your chair for the Massachusetts House of Representatives on Railway Service. I have been involved in Model UN at the Prep for 5 years. Outside of Model UN, I am on the SJP Tennis Team, an Eagles’ Wings Leader, a member of Spire Society, a member of the National Honor Society, and a member of the Chinese National Honor Society. The topic of Railway Service has really fascinated me, since my father is an executive in the FTA (Federal Transit Administration), which is part of the DOT (Department of Transportation), and he has been my inspiration for my research into this topic. Also, I am a frequent passenger on the “T” and Commuter Rail (as well as commuter rail and subway services in many different cities such as Washington D.C., Los Angeles, and Montreal). Thus, I recommend that you read through this paper as well as to do your own research on the frequency, extension, and public trust in the Greater Boston Railway Service. Please do not hesitate to email me with any questions or concerns! I will be happy to assist you, and I look forward to meeting you in December! Thank you, Brett Butler ‘21 ([email protected]) Chair, Massachusetts House of Representatives on Railway Service, SJPMUN XV Dear Delegates, My name is Brendan O’Friel.
