REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN

DECEMBER 2d, 1912.

Mr. President and Members of the Society:During the year 170 volumes have been added to the library:

101 of these were donated; 27 purchased; 28 acquired by bindingperiodicals; and 14 by binding together classified pamphlets.These, added to the 24427 titles reported the previous year,form a total of 24597 in the collection at the present time. Theaddition of pamphlets consists of 1102 by donation and 375by exchange.

The pamphlets, 186 in number, withdrawn from the pamph-let collection and bound, formed 6 volumes upon African Col-onization; 5 volumes upon William Henry Harrison; and 3volumes upon Cincinnati.

A few of the titles of volumes purchased are:—Indian Tribes of Upper Mississippi Valley and the Great

Lakes, 2 vols., by E. H. Blair;Records of the Federal Convention, by Max Farrand;The Constitutions of Ohio and Allied Documents, by I. F.

Patterson;The Civil War Literature of Ohio, by D. J. Ryan;Filson Club Publication, No. 26;Annexation of Texas, by J. H. Smith;The Big Sandy Valley (Kentucky), by W. Ely;History of Lancaster Co., Pa., by Ellis & Evans;Truth about Chickamauga, by A. Gracie;Buckeye Boys who became Presidents, by S. Rennick;Portage Path, by P. P. Cherry;

107

History of the United States, Vol. 3, by E. Channing;Early Pennsylvania (Original Narrative Series);Atlas of Ash tabula Co., Ohio;Cincinnati the Queen City, by Rev. C. F. Goss;History of Georgia, by C. C. Jones, Jr.;Swedish Settlements on the Delaware, by A. Johnson;Art Work of Cincinnati, pub. by G. E. White Co., 1898. It

contains 93 beautiful illustrations of different points of in-terest in and around the city.

We have received a very valuable addition to our collectionof material bearing upon Ohio, consisting of 2 volumes, "No.85 (Ohio)," of the Series of the "Index of Economic Materialin Documents of the States of the United States" publishedby the Carnegie Institution of Washington. As the title sug-gests, it is an index of Ohio State publications, and was com-piled by Miss Adelaide R. Hasse, who spent several days inthis library, examining our collection of such publications, andwe are indebted to her for the gift of this copy.

Another valued work upon Ohio has been given by Mr.Albert H. Chatfield. This is the new publication entitled,"History of Ohio, The Rise and Progress of an American State,"5 volumes, by Emilius O. Randall and Daniel J. Ryan.

A few manuscripts and other gifts of a miscellaneous naturehave been received, and are as follows:—Mr. C. T. Greve:

Original Record of the Proceedings of the Township ofCincinnati, commencing with the year 1808.

Mr. C. L. Harrison:11 Indentures; Maps of Ohio Flood, 1883 & 1884; Broad-sides, etc.

Mr. F. W. Hinkle:Note of Franklin Bank of Cincinnati, 1834;Indenture of land in western part of Cincinnati, 1814, aconveyance by A. St. Clair, Jr., to Jacob Baymiller;Draft of the environs of Cincinnati and has on reverse sidea statement apparently made by a committee to whom wasreferred the duty of naming the chief localities in the vicinity;it is without signature. Also, has a short communicationaddressed to M. G. Williams and the signature, I think,is J. A. Warder, whose short response appears just beneath.

108

Mr. D. L. James:10 Photographs of Cincinnati.

Louisiana State Museum:Centennial Medal of Louisiana.

Miss Ida E. Murdoch:By her Will Miss Murdoch gave to the Society a beautifulpiece of plate-silver engrossed with an illustration of Sheri-dan meeting General Wright as he rode into Winchestertown, and the words: "Hurrah! hurrah for Sheridan! Hur-rah! hurrah for horse and man!" from Thomas BuchananReid's "Sheridan's Ride." The plate was presented to hergrandfather, James E. Murdoch, December 6, 1890, duringan entertainment given at Pike's Opera House, for the bene-fit of The Home for Incurables, following his recital of thatpoem for the second time to a Cincinnati audience. Thefirst recital was on the occasion of a benefit given to himOct. 31, 1864, by friends in recognition of his services inreading to and caring for the soldiers in camp and on battle-field. It is an interesting fact that these stirring lines werewritten by the author upon that day for Mr. Murdoch, andat the house of Mr. Cyrus Garrett, No. 49 West EighthStreet.

Mr. M. Outcalt:22 Bills of fractional U. S. Currency.

Mrs. C. S. Sargent:Several postal cards illustrating the Findlay, Ohio, Cen-tennial.

Mr. C. W. Short:43 miscellaneous receipts and notes of early dates, bearingsignatures of J. C. Symmes, A. St. Clair, William Goforth,Peyton Symmes, Peyton Short and others.

Mr. Bellamy Storer:Letter of Rutherford B. Hayes, Nov. 1, 1871; Letter ofThomas Ewing to Bellamy Storer, Aug. 17, 1824, in refer-ence to the Boyd claim; Power of attorney, 1822, by heirsof James Boyd, to B. Storer in re to claim for land on theScioto river, Franklin Co., Ohio, granted by Congress 1783and 1785, for relief of the Canada and Nova Scotia Refugees;and, Platt of House Lots at Clinton on the Lebanon TownPike, 3 miles from Cincinnati.

109

Mr. C. B. Wilby:"Bull Moose" Badge worn by the adherents of Rooseveltin campaign of 1912.

Mr. Joseph Wilby:Photograph of First Congregational Church, Eighth & PlumStreets.

U. S. Treasury Department:40 Confederate Bills of different denominations.The Editor of the Findlay, Ohio, Morning Republican, has

very considerately forwarded to the Society issues of that news-paper, containing accounts of the Fort Findlay CentennialCelebration, July-August, 1912. We have also received, per-haps from the same source, the Souvenir and official Programof the Centennial. As the fort was built by General JamesFindlay of Cincinnati the accounts are especially interesting tothe residents of this city.

The usual routine work has continued in the library, withthe addition of considerable extra labor upon the pamphletmaterial, made possible by some outside assistance.
