THE COVER
Much of the early history of Eastham is brought to mind by the picture of peaceful atmosphere and scenic beauty Mr. Harold White has captured for the cover of this book. The "Doane Plot", which is located on the crest of a hill overlook- ing Nauset Harbor, is probably the most sought out by sum- mer visitors; the Nauset Coast Guard Station has truly been a "life-saver" for many shipwrecked seamen and the moors and sand dunes have been commemorated in at least two "best sellers.“
Deacon John Doane was one of the first seven settlers here, was once an Assistant Governor, Deacon of the Plymouth Church and one of the richest men in the colony. He died at the age of 96. The granite marker was placed on its present site by members of the Doane Family Association. The Associa- tion is still active and its members come to Eastham from all over the United States to revive memories and to attend re- unions held in his honor.
The first Hut for the shelter of shipwrecked seamen was erected at Nauset Beach in 1802. In 1855 this was replaced with a larger hut, equipped with a surfboat and an iron mortar capable of firing a line aboard wrecked vessels. When, in 1872, Congress voted money for life saving stations, one was erected at Nauset. This officially became the Nauset Coast Guard Station in 1915 by a reorganization of the old Life Saving Service and the Revenue Cutter service which then be- came the Coast Guard. The first home was built about one thousand feet south of the present site, but was later moved back for safety from the encroaching sea. The present build- ing was erected in 1937, and set some four hundred yards back from the beach.
The moors once provided the main feed for cattle during the winter months. The salt marsh grass, or hay, was gathered with the aid of horse and wagon where possible and with scows where the marsh prohibited the use of carts.
The tides of the Atlantic Ocean, which shows in the ex- treme background, have steadily worn down the Sand Dunes until they are now only a narrow strip of beach, but many of our "Cape Codders" can remember that fifty years ago they were three times their present heighth and width, and was then commonly called "the back side."

Report of Board of Selectmen
To the Taxpayers of Eastham :
Once again, through the medium of the annual Town Report, the elected and appointed officers have the pleasure of reporting their activities of the past year, and their recommendations for the coming year.
The work at Rock Harbor did not begin as early as anticipated, but should be finished early in the spring of 1956. The work on Cable Road has been completed. This year an appropriation is asked for the survey and layout of Nauset Road from the junction of Doane Road to Route 6 in North Eastham. This road has never been surveyed and is of varying and unknown widths. This should be done now, as it is the duty of the Town to define the property line for owners, at their request, and it is advan- tageous to complete the survey before much building is done along the road.
The Town co-operated with the Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce on their 1955 project known as "Clean Up, Paint Up" week. Mrs. Bessie Walters was appointed chair- man, and letters were sent to all residents requesting them to clean up around their own property. Mr. George Duffy, Jr., scout leader, supervised the scouts in clearing trash from along the roadsides. With a little more effort from everyone, it is hoped that an even better job will be done this year.
The "Vacationists' Handbook" was received with much pleasure again this past year. Visitors find it very useful in finding events and spots of interest and also send copies to friends. Any assistance you may give this com- mittee is a boost for the Town. The committee have volun- teered their services in the interests of the Town.
Work on the new oak shaft for the Old Mill is progress- ing, under the supervision of Bob Whiting, and it is hoped
8
that next summer will see the Old Mill under full sail and corn being ground again.
Salt Pond, of course, is still popular for shellfishing and bathing, and the beaches were more popular than ever. However, the season was shortened by the threat of that dread disease Polio, and the numerous advance hurricane warnings. As we still have "all of our eggs in one basket", namely the tourist trade, it is possible that these scares may curtail building. Should this happen, we would find a great need of small businesses in the community.
We are again grateful to Mr. Alfred Mills and Mr. Hor- ace Moore for the display of colored lights which outlined the Town Hall during the holiday season. The blue cross in the tower was especially attractive. Also, our thanks again go to Mr. Eugene Zack for the charts in the Town Report, which he prepared with the able assistance of Mr. A. Henry Nickerson.
The ground around Doane Rock was cleared of scrub oak and underbrush and a small circular drive was made. This greatly improves the appearance of the entrance to the road leading to the Doane Plot, which is highlighted on the cover of this report.
Although the judges did not specify any one thing as being outstanding about the 1954 Town Report, Second Prize for reports in its class went to the Town of Eastham. As the population of Eastham is now over 1,000 the 1955 Town Report will be in a different class.
The Selectmen wish to take this opportunity to express their appreciation to all departments and committees for their co-operation during the past year.
Respectfully submitted,
