"The Town of Orleans is host today to a Greek freighter and 23 crewmen,
including the Captain The"ELDIA" struck the outside beach at Pochet Bridge
just before 4 PM in a Northeast gale. The crew was lifted off by a Coast Guard
helicopter. No injuries were incurred Departments, citizens and other neigh-
boring Towns' emergency personnel and equipment pitched in to make the
successful rescue. Salvage efforts are underway."
From the Selectmen's Book, March 30, 1984
Just before the ELD1A struck the beach, William Quinn, Orleans Shipwreck
authority and recorder of vessel and ship disasters, snapped his Leica to show,
forever, her stranding.
SHE WENT
(back cover)
The ELDIA left us forty-nine days later, May 17, 1984 under tow, after a
methodical and successful salvage operation freed her from the entrapping
sand.

Sometime between 1949 and 1950, a young man and his family moved to Orleans from New Jer-
sey.He set up a shop in Lonnie Chase's house on the shore of Lonnies(Kescayoganset) Pond for the
repair of small electrical motors and appliances.He joined the small band of the youthful post WW 11
generation who claimed Orleans as their living place and their work place,
On October 15,1951 he was appointed to be the Towns one police patrolman,replacing one who
had resigned.He was the third police patrolman the Town had ever had.He was appointed Chief of
Police for Orleans in the spring of 1954. By then the force had expanded to three patrolmen.
CHESTER A. LANDERS served the Town of Orleans faithfully from that time forward until his
retirement in March of 1984.
He shepherded his department through its development to the present authorized force of 19
men and through the transition from makeshift quarters in the old Fire Station(now the offices and gift
shop of Nauset Workshop) to the present Fire/Police building.
He was among the first to recognize the troubled times the entire country faced with adolescent
drug and alcohol abuse.He organized a program of awareness among parent groups,cooperating with
them to save Orleans from potential disaster, He fostered parent/child communication through the
family oriented Record Hops, a regularly scheduled dance program, sometimes preceded by a ham
and bean supper.
On the other hand, he knew the needs of our older citizens and instituted the Reassurance Pro-
gram for their safety and certainty that someone cares. This program has culminated in an annual
holiday dinner for the participants,
Throughout all the years this self-effacing man always maintained a low profile.He exercised an
exceptional administrative ability to get the job done.
Chester A. Landers served us well, We thank him.
