ciate the retirement of Marlborough lake. Besides the scenery, the trees, the lake, Elisha Buell's tavern and the picturesque farm- houses, the library has remained constant. It began with a few books in the Methodist Church. Two large bookcases later were given. In 1924 W. Richmond of Pennsylvania furnished the means to reorganize the library which now bears his name; Ed- ward S. Bell has recently given another large bookcase and $500 worth of books, and the building in which the start was made has been bought. Lois B. Lord is secretary of the association and Mrs. Elmer Thienes is librarian.
Though threads of similarity run through the histories of all these twenty-nine towns of Hartford County, it is observable that the library of today is to them what the vaunted "little red school- house" was a century ago.
