COTUIT NEWS HISTORICAL SOCIETY SPRING LETTER The following letter is the yearly spring letter sent to members of the Historical Society of Santuit- Cotuit by its curator , Mrs. Nita Crawford. Dear Friends March has come and gone and here is my annual letter to let you know what has happened since the last annual meeting and what is hi the "mill...." I am now happy to tell you that since the last annual meeting in July we have added nineteen new members to our society. This makes a total of 334. .. We have voted to make all mem- bers now eighty years of age not liable for yearly dues. However , we have found that many con - tinue to pay dues or to make a yearly contribution. Either way is greatly appreciated. At the Fall meeting Lea S. Lu- quer spoke and showed slides of early commemorative coins.... At the November directors' meet- ing there was much discussion of how our Society could combine the past with needs of the present. It was finally voted that the mo- ney acquired at the annual White Elephant Sale go to provide a scholarship for a high school stu- dent living In Santuit or Cotult , Barnstable High School commit- tee to determine the need and se- lect the individual most deserv- ing. It was also voted that a gener- ous contribution be made to an existing charitable fund , known as the "Discretionary Fund" and administered according to the need by the Pastor of the Cotuit Federated Church; this money to be used, without regard to race , color , or creed within the bounda- ries of Santuit and Cotult. The only accounting of this money to the Society will be for what lt was used and not to whom It was giv- en. We have been talking for some time about replacing the shells on the lane which bounds the north side of the old Dottridge Home- stead. At long last, in the late Fall , three loads of shells were pur- chased from the Cultured Clam Corporation of Dennis for the sum of $225. Through the generous help of President Robert Hayden the shells were loaded , carted and spread in the old sandy lane. Thus again Shell Lane has been restor- ed to its 1800 condition. During the winter Charles Gleg has been working on our gift and loan book. There is a certain way that this should be done as advis- ed by Historical Society authori- ties. Anyone interested may see the record when he visits the old Homestead. Annual Open House will be on Sunday, June 24. Col. Eugene Clark will again give us one of his enjoyable illustrated lectures at our annual meeting, July 9, In Freedom Hall. The historical pa- per to be read at that time is by Professor Gould of Claremont Col- lege. California. I Understand that Mrs. Edward Moore has collabor- ated with him in accumulating the historical data . Town permission has been given to erect a directional sign to the Homestead in the center of the village. Fred Nickerson , an ho- norary member, Is to paint lt.
