Can You Find Him?

For nearly three decades we have been asking the question, “Where’sWaldo?” Let’s celebrate the 30th anniversary of the search for that distinc-tively dressed traveler by bringing it to life on Nantucket.

Join us on the hunt for Waldo starting Friday, July 1 with Find Waldo Local,a community wide Shop Local scavenger hunt. Hosted by Mitchell’s BookCorner and Nantucket Book Works (Nantucket Book Partners) throughout themonth of July, hundreds of children from all age ranges are expected to par-ticipate. Last year was a huge success, so there’s no doubt this year will bea hit as well.

Come by Mitchell’s to pick up your packet and find out where to beginthe hunt. Then, stop by each of the 20+ participating businesses listed in thepacket during the month of July, most of which are in walking distance ofdowntown. If you can find Waldo, you get a stamp on your passport. Thegoal is to get a stamp from each of the participating businesses.

Then, on Friday July 29 from 10 to 11 am, join us at Mitchell’s for an all-Waldo extravaganza. Bring your completed passport and enjoy games andprizes, giveaways and refreshments. There will even be an appearance byWaldo himself!

The Deferenceof Consideration

by Robert P. Barsanti

At the corner of Pleasant and Main Street, near the Three Bricks and inthe shadow of the Hadwen House, a Silver Yukon took the privilege of makingan unsignalled right turn in front of me. I slammed on my brakes and touchedthe horn as she startled. I backed up. She backed up, smiled, waved a con-siderate apology, and went on her way to her tennis lesson.

You can make whatever lesson you would like from our encounter. One,she was on her phone--flinging angry birds or snap-chatting or directing adrone strike in Pakistan--so she didn’t nudge her directional or see an uglyblue Volvo station wagon far below her hood. Two, the streets on Nantucketwere designed for horses and carts ladened down with barrels of whale oil,not Orca-sized cars. Three, I shouldn’t leave the house to go and get donutson a July morning. If I insisted on a dozen sugar-covered Downyflake spe-cials, I should bike for them, save the environment and my waistline.

All of us were wrong, in one way or another. The truly righteous are liv-ing underground and eating lichens, all the rest of us have to make do without venal sins as best we can.

July creeps at us in a line of cars. Nantucket is a delightful place, and wehave let far too many people know it. We have sold them houses that webuilt in pastures and farmyards, and now, in the heat and humidity of thetwenty-first century, all of those taxpayers, employers, and clients come forthe rest that we promised them. Nobody should be surprised.

Living, and driving, on Nantucket requires an entirely different set of skillsand attitudes than the mainland prizes. Off-island, you drive isolated in yourcar. You follow the instructions spelled out in sign or, in truly difficult mo-ments, in that little blue book you got from the Registry when you were six-teen. A traffic cop always exists to instruct you, whether he is in front of youor not. The roads are wider, with better signage and turning lanes; a direc-

Chronicling Life on Nantucket

by Amy Jenness

More than 100 years after the first white people settled on Nantucket, theFrench-American writer Hector St. John de Crevecoer visited and recordedhis perceptions of island life in his influential book Letters From An AmericanFarmer. Published in 1782, the book was the first European bestseller writtenby an American and featured the first example of an author attempting to de-fine what it means to be an American.

De Crevecoer divided the book into “letters” and wrote it in an unusualstructure that still has historians debating whether it is a novel or a memoir.When de Crevecoer writes about Nantucket in five “letters” he adopts the toneof a travelogue full of newsy narrative that reflected his admiration for theisland, which was thriving as the capital of whaling at the time of his visit.

Who would have imagined that any people should have abandoned a fruitfuland extensive continent, filled with the riches which the most ample vegetationaffords; replete with good soil, enamelled meadows, rich pastures, every kind oftimber, and with all other materials necessary to render life happy and comfort-able: to come and inhabit a little sandbank, to which nature had refused thoseadvantages; to dwell on a spot where there scarcely grew a shrub to announce,by the budding of its leaves, the arrival of the spring, and to warn by their fall theproximity of winter…Had this island been contiguous to the shores of some an-cient monarchy, it would only have been occupied by a few wretched fishermen,who, oppressed by poverty, would hardly have been able to purchase or build lit-tle fishing barks; always dreading the weight of taxes, or the servitude of men−of−war.

De Crevecoer would be by no means be the only popular writer to featureNantucket. For centuries writers have been fascinated by “customs at Nan-

What Is This?by Katherine BrooksMaria Mitchell Association

Have you seen stones inscribed with these messages?

“Northern Extremity of the Town’s Meridian Line”“Southern Extremity of the Town’s Meridian Line”

These two stones are located near the Pacific Na-tional Bank and the Fair Street Quaker Meetinghouse indowntown Nantucket. The stones date back to 1840 andhave been a standing mystery since the 20th century.Forgotten amongst the cob-blestones and other relicsthat create historic Nan-tucket, the true purpose ofthe stones remained a mys-tery to scientists and townspeople alike, the meaning oftheir purpose lost over time.

The mystery of themeridian stones was solvedin 2002 by a team of Nan-

tucket Maria Mitchell Association researchers.Theories of the stones’ original purpose includedrating chronometers (accurately timed clockstaken aboard ships to help determine longitudewhile out at sea) for whaling ships, and even atheory that the stones had no practical use at all.If you took a guided-tour of Nantucket andwalked past those stones before the 2002 inves-tigation, you would hear tour guides tell a num-

FAMILY EXCURSIONS

Beachcombingby Corinne Muffly

This summer season, you are sure to spend lots of time on the beach. Myfamily likes to stay busy while we’re on the beach, so we always come pre-pared with plenty of activities. One of the easiest and most enjoyable activi-ties is beachcombing. I’m sure you do this without even realizing it.Beachcombing is simply searching the shores for items of interest. I find my-self collecting seashells each time I go to the beach. There is always a shellor two that piques my interest and I just have to bring it home.

There are countless beaches on our little island and they all have treas-ures just lying out on their shorelines waiting to be found. My favorite beach-combing spots are along the North Shore. The north shore beaches areprotected by the Nantucket Sound and are typically calmer shallowerbeaches. Walking along these shorelines reveal assortments of shells, smoothstones, and even colorful sea glass. Beachcombing along the South, Western,and Eastern Shores are possible too. If you search near the water, the wavesmay present a bit of a challenge so I’d stick to the dry sand for searching. Butif you like a challenge, please be cautious of the waves.

While beachcombing, it is important to be prepared. It may sound easyenough to just walk along the beach and stuff seashells into your pockets orcarry them by the fist full, but there are better ways. A bucket and shovel arethe most useful tools while combing. Let’s be honest, these are beach goingessentials you can find almost anywhere on Nantucket. It’s helpful to put alittle ocean water into your bucket and drop your treasures into a salty bathas you go. This helps keep the sand off and makes taking the shells homemuch easier. Water shoes can be very handy too incase you want to wade inover rocky areas or step on some sharp shells. It would also be helpful tobring a plastic zip-lock bag to allow the travel home clean and fragrant free.Remember to wear sunscreen!

Diggin’ Clamsby Jessica Taryn Daub

The humble clam. Unpretentious and drab, these little bivalves have beena staple in the diet of coastal northeasterners for centuries. They bring theessence of the sea to your table and can be made the hero of an innumerableamount of dishes. Whether eaten raw or fried, with pasta, stuffed, or onpizza, there are few things that conjure a New England summer by the oceanthan fresh clams. Pick some up today and dig in with these fantastic recipes.

Drunken Clams2 Tbsp. olive oil

1 medium sized head of fennel, sliced2 cloves garlic, minced1 cup dry white wine

1 cup low sodium chicken stock2 dozen little neck clams, rinsed and cleaned

1/2 cup heavy cream

In a large skillet over medium heat add olive oil. Once the oil is hot addin sausage and begin to brown. Make sure to break up the sausage as itcooks.

As the sausage begins to brown, add in shallots and fennel. Continuecooking until the vegetables start to soften and the sausage is no longer pink.

tucket,” as de Crevecoer called island life.Frederick Douglass, a runaway slave fa-

mous as a writer and speaker in the mid tolate 19th Century, wrote about his first visitto Nantucket, the place where he made hisfirst public speech in 1841. His anti-slaverytreatise, Narrative of the Life of FrederickDouglass, An American Slave, published in1845, solidified Douglass’ role as an impor-tant voice in the abolitionist movement andhad sold 30,000 copies by 1860.

Famous for his macabre short stories,the only novel ever written by Edgar AllenPoe was The Narrative of Arthur GordonPym of Nantucket, in 1838. A young Pymstows away aboard the Nantucket whaleship

Grampus and has many adventures that include a shipwreck, mutiny andcannibalism. Reviewers were not kind, the book did not sell and its failuremarked a turning point in Poe’s career. He went to work as a magazine editorand began to focus on writing the short stories he would later become knownfor. But his one novel did have a strong influence on the writers Jules Verneand Herman Melville. And, scholars note many similarities between Poe’sand Melville’s work.

Melville was a crewmember on two Nantucket-owned whaleships in hisyouth, but never visited the island when he wrote his novel of the sea Moby-Dick, published in 1851. Yet, he situated the doomed crew on a Nantucketship called the Pequod under the leadership of Nantucket Quakers. Melvilledevoted Chapter 14, aptly named “Nantucket,” to describing the island andits characters. He wrote at length about the island’s remote location, flatness,lack of vegetation, extreme amount of sand and concluded, “Nantucket is no

Illinois.” One year after Moby-Dick’s publication Melville visited the island forthe only time. He travelled with his father-in-law, stayed one night and metastronomer Maria Mitchell and surviving Essex whaleship captain GeorgePollard.

Lillian and Frank Gilbreth brought their large family to Nantucket everysummer and lived in a Brant Point cottage made by joining two lighthousestogether. The Gilbreth’s, who worked as efficiency experts, had 12 children.Their hectic life was chronicled by two of their children in the popular bookand film Cheaper By The Dozen, published in 1948. In 1949, a camera crewfrom 20th Century Fox arrived on island to capture scenes for film version.Nantucket youth were shot playing baseball and tennis dressed in the stylesof the 1920s. An updated version of the film was released in 2003.

Robert Benchley, famous as a writer, humorist and filmmaker in the 1930sand 1940s, began summering with his family on the island’s east end in‘Sconset. Benchley’s son, Nathaniel, captured Nantucket’s quirky charactersin his novel The Off-Islanders, which was adapted for film as the popular “TheRussians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming!” And Nathaniel’s son, PeterBenchley, wrote the blockbuster book Jaws in 1975, which was also adaptedfor film.

Although they never wrote a story set on Nantucket, two American liter-ature giants - Ernest Hemingway and John Steinbeck - both spent time onthe island. In 1910 Hemingway visited for a month with his mother Gracewhen he was 11 years old. Mother and son stayed in a guest house on IndiaStreet and Ernest, born and raised in the midwest, learned about whaling andswam in the ocean for the first time during is Nantucket visit.

In 1951 writer John Steinbeck and his family rented a house in ‘Sconsetowned by Peter Benchley. Steinbeck liked it the island and his writing prof-ited. “I never knew a place with more energy than here,” he wrote in a letterto a friend. In the morning Steinbeck worked on his book East of Eden andwent swimming or fishing in the afternoon with his family.

Noted writers who more recently have called Nantucket home includejournalist David Halberstam, New York Times columnist Russell Baker, diaristand composer Ned Rorem, historian Nathaniel Philbrick and novelists NancyThayer and Elin Hilderbrand.

ber of stories and theories about the meaning of the meridian stones. So what are they actually? A meridian line is a line that indicates, “true

north” (where the North Pole is geographically), as opposed to “magneticnorth,” which is aligned with the Earth’s magnetic field. If you were to use acompass –or pull out your smartphone and open your compass app –thatcompass (digital or physical) would show you magnetic north. The stoneswere measured and placed accordingly to create a line that demarcates truenorth.

The two stones were erected by William Mitchell, a prominent as-tronomer, teacher, and surveyor on Nantucket in the early 1800’s. He wasalso the father of the first American woman astronomer, Maria Mitchell.These stones were important for surveying work and were among the firstestablished in the U.S. – quite some time before an act of Congress requiredstates to establish them. Knowing the angle between the stones was impor-tant for surveyors and mapmakers who needed to translate between theircompass readings and directions on a map. Or, perhaps in the case ofWilliam Mitchell, creating exact property lines and translating between bothcardinal and magnetic directions to keep the housing and land measurementsconsistent.

As the team of Maria Mitchell Association researchers began the searchfor the truth about these mysterious stones, they found public documentsfrom 1840 Nantucket Town Meetings, which indicated that the stones weremost likely used as an instrument for public use. The stones have thin lines,which indicated to scientists that the stones might have been used for meas-uring, and could be a “compass stone.” The team took measurements of thestones through two different methods, and both concluded that the stoneswere slightly misaligned, which was a curious discovery from a technical ob-server such as William Mitchell. From public records and documents, meas-urements, and research, the Maria Mitchell team concluded that the southstone had been removed and replaced for construction and paving projectstwo separate times. The movement of the stones from their original spot in-

dicates that the stones were likely not replaced accurately, accounting for themisalignment to true north.

What do these stones do now? The stones are historical artifacts andserve as a symbolic monument of astronomical and geographic advances inthe early 1800s. The meridian stones are unobtrusive; perhaps you have evenpassed by the stones without even noticing them. The stones act as a re-minder of how integrated our knowledge of the land is with our knowledgeof the sky; and of how we take for granted the tools available to us for navi-gation.

“Meridian markers are reminders of an important period in the history ofWestern civilization, during which people were learning how to precisely measurethe local territory and, eventually, the whole planet.”

–Vladimir Strelnitski (Maria Mitchell Observatory Director Emeritus)

The next time you are in Town keep a lookout for these stones and takea minute to orient yourself to ‘true north.’ If you are interested in learningmore about Nantucket or the astronomical and geological happenings aroundyou, join the Maria Mitchell Association for fun-filled activities, which connectthe past with the present and space with land. On July 20th you can evenmeet Vladimir Strelnitski, one of the prominent scientists to solve the case ofthe mysterious meridian stones, and hear one his most popular lectures onthe phenomena of polar lights at the MMA Summer Science Speaker Series.

The MMA was founded in 1902 to preserve the legacy of Maria Mitchell andto promote her belief in learning-by-doing. An astronomer and natural scientist,as well as an educator, Maria Mitchell shot to worldwide fame when she discov-ered a comet in 1846. For her discovery, she was awarded a gold medal fromthe King of Denmark – the first American and first woman to receive the honor.She served as the Professor of Astronomy and Mathematics at Vassar Collegefrom 1865 until 1888. Today, the MMA operates two observatories, a natural sci-ence museum, an aquarium, and the birthplace of Maria Mitchell. The MMA con-ducts scientific research, leads classes and workshops for people of all agesyear-round, and welcomes thousands of visitors to its museums and observato-ries.

I recently took my three-year-old nephew beachcombing down on theBrant Point beach. This isn’t really a swimming beach, but it has tons ofshells. Perfect for some combing. It is called Brant Point beach because of the

Brant Point lighthouse, which happens to be the second oldest establishedlighthouse in North America. Most people go to Brant Point for a little fishingor to watch the boats ebb and flow into the harbor. As my nephew and I me-thodically collected seashell after seashell, we discussed potential projects to

tional isn’t as crucial when you have pulled over into aspecial lane and slowed to a stop.

More to the point, your car is even more isolated andisolating than it used to be. Almost every car has beensealed into silence, and then filled with the digital com-panionship of Beyonce, Kanye, or Golden Earring. WithBluetooth, you don’t even have to listen to the radio. Thecar will play your same favorite hundred songs over andover again without interruption from someone else’staste or algorithm. Casey Kasem waves at you from thesidewalk, and the traffic is updated on Waze. Our carsare extensions of our phones; soon some genius willhook up our blinkers to an app and the connection willbe complete.

Unfortunately, Nantucket roads and drivers look backon the nineteenth century fondly. They require more at-tention than our phones can afford and the rules thatgovern. Islander Interactions don’t follow the rules andprivileges that either the algorithms, your father, or theState Police recognize. Driving on Nantucket requiresnot only keeping your eyes on the narrow streets, but onthe eyes of everyone else behind the wheel. Can she seeme? Will she let me go? Did she put her phone down?

I have found that the best safety device on island isan open window. If the driver and passenger windowsare open, the fog won’t build up on them, and I can con-nect to the world. I can hear the bicyclist heaving behindthe hedge, the mother with her jog stroller, and the ce-ment mixer lumbering up the road. More importantly, Ican signal to the other cars. With my window down, Ican gesture the bicycle to pass in front of me, point outwhich of the five roads I will be taking at the five way stop

signs, and wave thanks to the kind souls who let methrough the intersection.

Driving, and living, on Nantucket requires interactionwith everyone else, not isolation. The great irony of is-land living is that you come out here to get away fromeveryone else and find yourself more tightly connectedto others than before. If you want to get away fromeverybody, you probably should move to Manhattan andenjoy the privileges of an anonymous city.

In the isolation of the mainland, you can operatesafely and politely within rules, either clearly expressedor implied. You don’t stare. You don’t point. You don’tman-spread on the subway bench. Out here, without thebenefit of clearly expressed rules, we have to get by withconsideration. Consideration happens when you seeyourself in other places, at other stools, behind otherwheels. To be considerate requires the Atticus Finch setof footwear; you have to walk around in someone else’sflip-flops (or heels) for a while.

Unfortunately, we live in an age of privilege. Thoseof us who have seen the winds of winter feel that wehave the privilege of ownership and residence; we knowthings and we know people and we are known. In aphrase: “We live here.” At the same time, many of ourvisitors feel that they have the privilege of money andbirth. They have bought a membership in the NantucketClub and, as the ad said, “Membership has its privileges.”

Privilege, in short, is about assessing how you aredifferent from other people, while consideration ac-knowledges that you aren’t all that different after all.Privilege asserts while consideration defers. The island,small and jammed as it is, forces you to remember thatwe are all brothers from another mother, whether we arethe Millennial on the beach or the Boomer on the Adiron-dack chair. Both are on top of the sand for this one mo-ment, enjoying the July sun. Better than the alternative.

create once our beachcombing was complete. I mean, what are you reallygoing to do with all those fantastic finds once you get them home? I sug-gested making a sailor’s valentine. Him, only being three, naturally had noidea what I was talking about, but happily agreed.

A sailor’s valentine is an ornate and detailed design made entirely out ofseashells. They were brought home by sailors and given to their loved ones.There are examples of these beautiful creations in the Whaling Museum andin shop windows throughout town. While beachcombing, in order to createa sailor’s valentine, it is helpful to have an idea or potential design in yourhead when you begin your collection. Keep in mind: when you are combingwith young children, there is no plan! Go with the flow. Which is what I hadto do with my little guy as he threw everything and anything into his bucket.

Once our collection was complete, we went home and washed, sorted,and dried our shells. I cut out an octagonal shape out of cardboard and webegan carefully placing our shells onto the surface. After squeezing many ofthe shells onto the sailor’s valentine, with no rhyme or reason, I went backand carefully glued the seashells down using a hot glue gun, but any super-glue would work. It honestly did not look all that bad! I may have to try thisagain with some older children and see what creative designs they come upwith.

So the next time you spot something special while wandering along theocean shores, comb away and get creative with your kids. Something as sim-ple as collecting shells at the beach can turn into a fun event ending in ahomemade souvenir and make meaningful memories with your family.Happy beachcombing!
