Samuel Adams
EASTHAM A document found in the archive room at Eastham Historical Society’s Schoolhouse Museum appears to contain the signature of Samuel Adams.
The piece of paper was an official recognition of the appointment of Elijah Knowles as Justice of the Peace in Barnstable County. It is dated June 7, 1785.
An article about the discovery was published earlier this week in the Cape Cod Times and noted that Adams was a pivotal figure in both Massachusetts and national history.
A delegate to the First Continental Congress in 1774, he signed the Declaration of Independence in 1776. In 1781, he was appointed lieutenant governor of Massachusetts, and became governor in 1789.
EASTHAM Joseph Mistretta was dusting off some framed documents in the corner of the archive room at Eastham Historical Society when he found what could be a priceless document.
The piece of paper was an official recognition of the appointment of Elijah Knowles as Justice of the Peace in Barnstable County. Dated June 7, 1785, the document was signed by the Governor of Massachusetts, Samuel Adams.
Society President Eileen Seaboldt recalled the moment Mistretta, the society s director, showed her the document.
“He asked, Do you think this could be real? ” She remembers chills going up and down her spine when she looked at it.
