Excerpt from Proceedings at the Opening of the Mark Skinner Library, Manchester, Vermont: July 7, 1897

It is my privilege to extend a cordial wel come to the many lovers of good books who are gathered this summer morning within the cheerful rooms of this new and elegant edifice.

We come with some just appreciation of the practical value to us of the better litera ture of these and the former years. In the interest of the mental culture and moral ele vation of any community, we recognize the importance of an extensive and well-selected library, made accessible to all who are asso cisted in the various relations of social and civil life. And we are profoundly grateful for the wise and large generosity of the esteemed friend who has now placed such an institution in the midst of this community.
