2022.615.3108Hemlock Looper Infestation
  • Document, Other Documents
  • Nature, Plants
A multiple page document about the effects of the Hemlock Looper. The Hemlock Looper is a caterpillar that eat the needles off of Hemlock trees. This causes Hemlock trees to die within a year of the caterpillars eating them. The document suggests that the forest service takes a look at the trees so that they can determine the life span. It goes on to say that the trees can be spread with a replant for the looper, and that the state could pay for up to 50% of the cost.

Photographs. Scans of seven large-format color slides taken by Michael Macfarlan in 1955. Two (F-G) are of the Lewis Stanley boathouses on GCI. Five are of the 1,000 lb. Carcharodon carcharias "man-eater" shark harpooned by Capt. Lyndon "Tud" Bunker and John L. Saltonstall aboard his 32-foot cabin cruiser, Thetis, in August of 1955. According to newspaper articles (see items 1000.28.400-406), the shark rammed a hole below the waterline about three feet from the bow, forcing the Captain to land the boat on Bakers Island where Macfarlan took these photos. The shark was shot and killed by a boat coming to their rescue. The shark was identified by one of its teeth by Henry B. Bigelow of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard College in September 1955. The photographs show John Saltonstall in blue jacket and white cap with Tud Bunker (tan pants) and Dorothy Macfarlan (photographer's mother) in white with white hat on Bakers Island with the boat and the shark.
