Report of Trustees of Lincoln Public Library.


The Trustees of the Lincoln Public Library submit the following report :-


The usual statistics of the Librarian setting forth the num- ber of volumes in the Library, the additions thereto made during the year, the circulation of books and the number of days the Library has been open, are presented. They call for no special comment.


It affords the Trustees much gratification to be able to re- port that the alterations last year made in the exterior brick- work construction of the building have effectually remedied the architectural mistakes in original construction which, though trifling, had, none the less, for many years been a source of annoyance to the librarians, as well as damage to the edifice, involving risk of injury to the books, and puzzled the trustees in their efforts at a remedy. The constant seepage and consequent destruction of plastering and interior decora- tion, heretofore so marked, has been stopped; and, as yet, there are no indications of its renewal. In other respects, also, the work of alteration has proved most satisfactory.


As appears from the report of the Treasurer, the finances of the institution are in a satisfactory condition. A small, but sufficient, balance to the good has been carried forward to the credit of the coming year.


The following correspondence explains itself. It affords the Trustees much pleasure thus to spread it in full as a memo- rial on the records of the Town :-


" Lincoln, Sept. 26, 1905. HON. CHARLES F. ADAMS,


Chairman of Lincoln Library Trustees:


DEAR SIR: I enclose my check for $1,000, to be used for the benefit of Lincoln Public Library. If the Trustees ap-


75


prove, I would request the income be applied for five years, at least, to increase the salaries of our faithful and efficient Librarians.


Respectfully submitted, JULIA A. BEMIS." (Signed)


Boston, Oct. 5, 1905.


MY DEAR MISS BEMIS :


At the meeting of the Trustees of the Public Library held at the Library building last evening, the 4th inst, your letter to me of the 26th ult. was submitted. The following votes were thereupon passed, and ordered to be entered upon our records :-


Voted: that the Chairman be instructed to communicate to Miss Julia A. Bemis the thanks of the Trustees of the Lin- coln Public Library, and of the Lincoln community as a whole, for her generous gift of $1,000 to be invested, and the income thereof to be used for the benefit of the Library.


***


Permit me also to add to the above my personal thanks, and appreciation of the spirit of kindliness, as well as generos- ity, which has, in this matter, marked your action.


I remain, etc., (Signed) CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS.


MISS JULIA A. BEMIS. Box 17, Lincoln, Mass.


All of which is respectfully submitted. By order of the Trustees,


CHARLES F. ADAMS, Chairman.


Lincoln, February 6, 1906.
