Mr. Harry D. Bonnell,
R. F. D.,
Orleans, Mass.
Dear Mr. Bonnell :
At the Special Town Meeting, held March 29th, the Town voted to accept with thanks your very generous gift of marshland at Rock Harbor.
Your kindness in the matter is much appreciated, the people of the Town of Eastham feel you have demonstrated a deep interest in the town by your gift and we are confident that the development of this tidal basin can only result in much benefit to both the towns.
It is a pleasure to state that with co-operation of this kind a precedent has been established that could well be a pattern for other towns to follow to enhance the future of Cape Cod as a whole.
Yours truly, Leslie E. Chase, Town Clerk, for the Town of Eastham.
