Scope and content

Uniformed keeper Oscar V. Brown at Brown's Point Lighthouse points to an entry in the lighthouse book and explains its significance to two teenage visitors wearing bathing suits. Shirley Jackson signs the register while Anita Rowe patiently waits her turn to sign. Mr. Brown has been the keeper of this lighthouse for 36 years. He will turn 70 on October 19 and will take mandatory retirement November 1st. The first lighthouse at this location was a shaky wooden structure. It was replaced in 1934 with this white concrete building. (T. Times 6/15/1939, pg. 1)
