Excerpt from Dedication Services of the Fellowes Athenæum and the Roxbury Branch of the Boston Public Library: July 9th, 1873

On behalf Of the Trustees it becomes my duty to deliver to you, sir, the keys and custody of this building. And in thus cementing the union Of the Fellowes Athenaeum with the Public Library, we would indulge the hope that such union shall prove so strong and lasting that future generations will remember with gratitude the generosity of Caleb and Sarah Fellowes, through whom we are possessed of these lands, buildings and volumes; and as well remember the care of that Municipal Government which seeks, by the establishment of its Branch Library here, to secure to this district a brighter future, by giving to all classes a full opportunity to enlighten and cultivate the mind.
