This report describee the activities of the Commission from its establishment on June 24, 1958 to the completion of its work on December 31, 1964. It was the task of the Commission to organize a program of events that Would appropriately commemorate the three hundredth anniversary of the founding of New Jersey in 1664. I believe this report will show that the Commission effectively met its responsibility, and that the ~ercentenary obs~rvance instilled in the people of our state a renewfd spirit of pride in the New Jersey heritage. It is particularly gratifying to the Commission that the idea of the Tercentenary caught the imagination of so large a proportior. of New Jersey's citizens, inspiring many thousands of persons, young and old, to volunteer their efforts.

GARDNER. ulit« Jnqntrrr. auh Minor T^ttae, Kanturkrt. -NZQZZ copyright 1915 hy Arthur H. Gardner. JUN23I9I5 ©CI,A401504 Introduction to First Edition. In presenting this book to the public, it may be well to say a few words in regard to the geographical position of the island, the nature of the coast, and the vast extent of dangerous shoals contigu- ous and stretching seaward for many leagues, which have ever proved a terror to mariners, and upon which so many noble vessels have "wound up their logs" for all time, consigning myriads of human be- ings to a watery grave. The island of Nantucket is situated some thirty miles southeast of Massachusetts, is fifteen miles in length, with an average breadth of four or five, and presents a coast line of about seventy-five miles. Owing to the peculiar shape of the island, and the indentures made by the harbor, the coast line, especially on the northern side, is exceedingly irregular. A light sandy beach extends around the island, and with the exception of a small reef in Muskeget Channel and a few isolated ones in the immediate vicinity of the shore on the north side of the island and Tuckernuck, the coast is entirely clear of rocks.

COPYRIGHTED 19 13 BY THE S TATE STREET TRUST COMPANY COMPILED, ARRANGED AND PRINTED UNDER THE DIRECTION OF THE WALTON ADVERTISING AND PRINTING CO\MPANY BOSTON, MASS. HE FOREWORDS79s THE STATE STREET TRUST COMPANY takes pleasure in presenting to you the seventh of the historical brochures that it has issued annually during the past six years. It hopes that this will be of interest, as the pamphlet pre- sents a phase of Boston's past, during which the foundation of New England's mercantile supremacy was being laid by the captains and merchants of this important era. In fact, the be- ginning of Boston's prosperity goes back to the days of its mer- chant traders, whose ships made the American flag so well known in Asiatic, Australian, and Californian ports. An attempt has been made to give a bird's-eye view of the clipper ships which during their history have had some connec- tion with Boston either through their captains, their builders, or their owners. The pamphlet does not purpose to be more than an outline presentation of the subject that has been so fully covered by Captain Arthur H.
