Volume 12 Issue 8 AUGUST 2005 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 Trea- The Nahant Woman’s Club presents a check for surer Polly Bradley.

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!

INCREASING CIRCULATION MBT Caitlin, along with her 4th Grade teachers and class- mates 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 stu- dents. 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. NAHANT HARBOR REVIEW • AUGUST 2005 • Page 10

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
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 re- ceived 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 Frederic Tudor’s first passion was trees, and the more the better. From the Nahant, of a coarse or dark granite which is quite abun- very year his cottage was completed in 1825, he commenced what became a dant there; the roof is covered with hemlock bark, giving lifelong campaign to plant trees on treeless Nahant. The fact that the first settlers the building an ancient appearance, which seems to be a had deforested the peninsula so that they could pasture their cattle cut no ice with taste the proprietor studies. Mr. Tudor’s garden contains over two acres, and is Frederic. Similarly, the scoffers who claimed that the salt air would kill all vegeta- inclosed (sic) by a very substantial fence, about seven- tion, including trees, only spurred Frederic on. What greater challenge did he teen feet high, which not only protects it from intruders, need? Tell him something couldn’t be done and he instantly set out to do it.

The pear trees look in cultivation, a total which he estimated would reach ten miles in length, if exceedingly well, considering that it is an unfavorable planted in a single row. season for the pear crop in this vicinity, owing to the late frost in the spring.

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, trans- portation 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 twenty- one 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.
