Actually, I am guilty of using a regionalism. Marblehead, MA is about the easternmost point of Massachusetts (if you don't include Cape Cod). It is a very old fishing port (similar to Gloucester).
However, most germain to my comment is the fact that the cliffs are composes significantly of marble and granite. Also, that it is one of the first places in the US where you can see the sun come up.
Ergo, when a subject first becomes illuminated for someone, light has "dawned" on "Marble-head".
