Note: On November 28th, 1942, The Cocoanut Grove, one ofBoston’s most popular nightclubs, had somewhere close to 1000people enjoying its exotic “Casablanca”-style decor, and live music,(although the facility’s official capacity was half that). Formerly a cityspeak easy, the club had grown in size over the years, incorporatingsections of real estate along Piedmont and Shawmut streets, withdark corners, and a cozy bar for secluded assignations. When firebroke out in that bar area, the fate of 492 souls was sealed within amatter of moments. Due to the nature of the building—includingobscured or locked exits, lack of exit signage, low lighting, andnarrow passageways—the fire, heat, and fumes overtook patronswith hideous speed.

Benjamin “Barney” Welanksy, the club’s owner, who claimedorganized crime connections, and had friendships with severalcrooked city officials during a time when Boston politics was rife withgraft, had kept the club operating despite numerous safety violations.After the horrific fire, Welansky was convicted on nineteen counts ofmanslaughter, and sentenced to twelve to fifteen years in prison.

This tragedy is one that will never be forgotten by the City of Boston,and, by extension, the rest of the United States. Because of thisdisaster, new fire laws were put into place that exist and protect us tothis day, including the use of non-flammable materials, sprinklers,proper exit signage and emergency lighting and standardized,functioning doors. All these things we now take for granted, butwould have saved hundreds of lives the night of November 28, 1942.

Translated text: Greetings! I arrived in Nuremberg on St. Franciscus day. I found some excellent men, and some who are rather timid in mycause, so much so, that they even try to persuade me not to go to Augsburg. But I remain firm while mentioning these things. God’s will bedone. I shall go and see those grand and marvelous sights. Also in Augsburg, in the very midst of his enemies, Jesus Christ will reign. // OurEck is not as well spoken of here as I should like. In Nuremberg they think he is not so much in favor of our Wittenberg views, that heshould not seem ready to cause ill will against the Wittenberg theologians. I shall be very much displeased with him unless I learn somethingdifferent. The suspicion is heightened by this book I send you, compiled by some elegant by more than heathenish babbler. You will see,that either he himself, or his adherents operate against us, or at least intend to; but he himself most of all is in the way of his good name.Tomorrow I shall go to Augsburg with our Mr. Wenceslaus and some other friends, although I have been told that an exceedingly strong willis being prepared for me there. The persecutors congregate like wolves ready to devour a lamb. May Christ live, but Martin and every sinnerdie, as it is written. May all the sinners and wicked perish from this earth, so that they may be no longer. But the God of my salvation bepraised. // Fare you well and hold out, knowing that our work must need be reproved, either by men or by God. God, however, is true, butman is false. Nuremberg. M. Luther. 1518, on St. Franciscus day [October 4].

Lost between the years 1719 and 1960, this remarkably rare letter was acquired by the father of the present owner. It is referenced in theWeimar Briefwechsel, no. 96, reproducing only the first and last paragraphs. The Weimar editors took their material form Christian EberhardWeissmann’s Introductio in Memorabilia Ecclesiasitca Historiae, Stuttgart, 1719, 134 und 2. There is great conjecture as to the name of thebook and it’s author, the “heathenish babbler” referred to in paragraph 2. As Eck was beginning to lose face around this time period, it wasoriginally surmised that Luther was referring to Eck’s Obelisci, but Luther had referred to this work some five months previously.

Text in full (redacted areas in brackets): Of anticipation of the lastresult, but a greater refinement already than is ever attained by man.There is papyrus by the riverside, and rushes for light, and the gooseonly flies over head, ages before the studious are born or lettersinvented, and that literature which, the former suggest, and ever fromthe first have rudely served, it may be man does not yet use them toexpress.

There is a sort of humanity in nature which is not identical with man’s,which yet serves him [and serenely smiles on him], but would muchmore serve & bless the natural man with its sympathy. Material thingsare to some extent man’s kindred, and subject to the same laws withhim. He and they follow one fate. Ever a taper is his relative, andburns not eternally, but only a certain number of his hours. Hesleeps, and ever he wakes a taper is extinguished. Those tapers thefixed stars, which are not both lit and burnt out in the life of a manbut it may be in the life of the race, which will be found extinguishedwhen woken from his waking sleep, are his more distant relatives.Yet the farthest and largest star is but a lamp to light the way forman. [Space is but so many of his hairsbreadth wide; the whitecrescent on his nail is the unit of measure even for starry distances;his middle finger measures how many digits into space; he extends afew times his thumb and finger, and the continent is spanned; hestretches out his arms, and the sea is fathomed.] His hairsbreadth orhis nail or his finger or his span or by his outstretched arms are theunits of measure...for starry distance. [These things] So much is finiteor measured by him & belongs wholly to the same sphere or naturaldynasty with himself. He witnesses [their] its birth and [their] its decay.But what man’s life does not thus embrace, he sees from one side,stationary and eternal, and it thrills him to behold.
