The strength of our local Association is nearly 1100, consisting of Wolf Scouts, River Scouts and Sea Scouts, Senior Scouts, and Scouters (Officers). We have 17 Scout Troops and 18 Wolf Cub Packs. The 1st East Ham Scout Troop is one of the oldest in the country, having been formed in 1908 when Scouting was first started by Lord Baden Pow- ell. Scouting has therefore been in existence in East Ham for 43 years.


With my best thanks in anticipation and kindest regards.


Yours sincerely, L. Crow, District Commissioner.

Dear Sir :


I duly received your letter of 4th instant, and shall be very pleased as the President of your Association to convey to your brother Scouts in Eastham, Massachusetts, the very best wishes of all the members of the local Association.


I thank you for your information regarding your Asso- ciation, which I most certainly will make use of.


Kind regards, Yours faithfully,


Mayor.

His Worship the Mayor of East Ham, Town Hall, East Ham. Dear Mr. Mayor :


The occasion for your visit to Eastham, Massachusetts, U. S. A., presents an opportunity to the members of East.


51


Ham Women's Voluntary Service to send their cordial greetings and thanks to the women of our sister Town.


During the late war, we were privileged to receive in East Ham, England, many fine gifts from the U. S. A., through the American Red Cross Bundles for Britain Can- teens. Quilts, clothing of all kinds were sent in large quanti- ties by our friends in the U. S. A. These proved of inestima- ble value during the Blitz, and mere words utterly fail to express the gratitude of the recipients of these gifts, but apart from material value they created a warm bond of understanding, good will and friendship between the coun- tries that we will never forget.


My members had the honor of distributing these gifts and desire to express to the women of Eastham their very sincere appreciation and thanks for the very real and valu- able help you so generously sent. It helped us to survive.


We trust that the cordial relations between our two great nations will endure.


With best wishes, Very Sincerely yours,


Rosina G. Arnil.


County Bourough of East Ham.


County Bourough Organization.


The following message addressed to the County Bou- rough Council of the Town of East Ham was read, and adopted. A copy of the message was given to the Mayor, with the request that he deliver it in person and see that it is properly presented to those to whom it is addressed :


To the County Bourough of East Ham, England, Essex, England.


The Town of Eastham, Massachusetts, U. S. A., is about to conclude a two weeks celebration of the Three Hundredth Anniversary of its founding in 1651. It was our desire to have the "Mother Town" send official representatives to


52


help us celebrate this significant event. You paid us the spe- cial honor of making possible as your representatives your Mayor and Mayoress, themselves. We want you to know that they have performed their duties with dignity and charm and rare understanding. Tirelessly they have attended every event scheduled and have won the admiration and respect of all those with whom they have come in touch.


In sending you this message of thanks, we are conscious of many ties which bind our two communities together. It is more than a common name, it is a common heritage, a com- mon language, a firm and unshakable belief in the dignity and worth of the individual, a form of government based upon this fundamental principle and a record of common sacrifice reaching back over a world fighting to defend these sacred principles.


The two great nations of which our communities are a part carry especially heavy obligations during these days of world tension and misunderstandings. We must continue to work and stand together.


By taking advantage of and even creating opportunities for personal contact and understanding, and by other means we may together lend reality to the fact that the world is now a neighborhood. May we, working together, help lay the foundations by which in time it may become a brother- hood. May our two communities continue their intimate and fruitful fellowship during the years to come.


Leslie E. Chase, Town Clerk Town of Eastham Massachusetts, U. S. A.
