Notes

From Edith Blake's 1995 EYC Inventory: "The wind indicator, or anemometer and wind direction vane next to it, was donated in memory of Robert Jenks Beede, Jr. 1930-1948 by his young friends. Mr. Beede, it will be remembered, was killed while aquaplaning off the Chappaquiddick Beach Club in the summer of 1948."
