From the Sept. 26, 1947 edition of the Vineyard Gazette:
Squalls, and howling nor’west winds, a heavy sea and a low temperature, all failed to prevent Gov. Robert Bradford from making his scheduled visit to the Island on Saturday. Arriving by way of Cuttyhunk, following a stormy passage from Woods Hole to that Island, Governor Bob landed at Menemsha Creek, fished Squibnocket Beach as the guest of the Island and of Ralph Hornblower, dined on lobster at the Hornblower estate and was present at exercises in Edgartown before he left for the mainland.
