Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Historical Addredss: Delivered at the Opening of the Village Library of Farmington, Conn;, September 30th, 1890 WE have met this evening to open, to the use of the public, the library which the generosity of the citizens and friends of this village has instituted. By way of introduction, a brief account has been thought fitting of an older library founded here a century ago, of the men who organized it, and of the literary taste of their times. There have been other libraries in this town also well-deserving consideration, if time permitted. Seven were in active operation, in the year 1802, with an aggregate of volumes on their shelves, cost ing The most recent library is too well known to you all to need any eulogy or description from me. If the Tunxis Library had not attained its remarkable prosperity, there is little reason to suppose we should have been here this evening. In the year 1795, when the Revolutionary War had been a thing of the past for twelve years, the peo ple of this village found time to turn their energies to peaceful pursuits. The long and bitter contentions in the church had just given place to peace and good will by the settlement of the beloved pastor, the Rev. Joseph Washburn, in May of that year. The Hon. John Treadwell of this town, afterward Gov. Treadwell, was at this time a member of the upper house of the State Legislature, and John Mix, Esq., had just begun to represent the town in the lower house twice each year as certainly as the months of May and October came around. These worthy and public Spirited men, with such assistance as their fellow townsmen were ready to offer them, founded, in that year, the first library in this village of which we have any extended record. They called it The Library in the First Society in Farmington, and this library, with sundry changes in name and organization, has survived to the present time.
