"Widows Walks" date from the old Cape Cod
sailing vessel days when the wives of sea-faring men
watched for their loved ones to return. Sometimes
a husband, whose ship was lost at sea, would never
return, but the widow continued to watch faith-
fully for the phantom ship that never came.
There are only a few "Widow's Walks" left on
Cape Cod.
