ANNUAL REPORTOF THE

Historical and Philosophical Societyof Ohio for 1917

LIBRARIAN'S REPORT

DECEMBER 3D, 1917.

To the President and Members of the Society:I have the honor to submit this report for the corporate year

ending to-day.The donations to the library have been 115 volumes; 1650

pamphlets; several bound volumes of Cincinnati newspapers ofcomparatively early dates and unbound volumes of the NewYork Times for 1916 and part of 1917; also, a quantity of manu-scripts, several portraits, and other gifts of a miscellaneous na-ture, of which further mention will be made below.

We have purchased 51 volumes, crediting the ElizabethHaven Appleton fund with 19; the Margaret Rives King fundwith 28; the Society of Colonial Dames fund with 4; and 59 vol-umes have been added by the binding of pamphlets and exchange.These with the volumes donated aggregate 225, increasing thetotal number in our collection to 27,222. Several maps have beencredited to the Appleton fund.

Over a year ago the Hon. Joseph Benson Foraker gave to us anextensive collection of manuscript letters which were writtenlargely by men of prominence in the political arena. The giftwas held in his office for additions and particularly for copies ofhis own answers to these letters, having agreed to supply themafter it had been shown how much they would enhance the valueof the collection. Illness, however, retarded this labor untilfinally Death came in May last ending all of his life-work.

This collection was forwarded to the library last summer byMrs. Foraker with the welcome information that the work wasbeing continued and later we would receive the additions. These

155

letters were written by two hundred or more correspondents—too many to be mentioned singly at the present time. Whencompleted and properly arranged, the collection will be knownas the "Joseph Benson Foraker Manuscripts."

The Hon. James E. Campbell presented the Society with anoriginal document that he thought ought to be in our files as itrelated to this city. It is "An Act to remove the seat of Govern-ment and fix the same at Cincinnati in the county of Hamilton"and reads as follows:"Sec. 1. Be it enacted by the Legislative Council and House of"Representatives in General Assembly and it is hereby enacted"by the authority of the same That the seat of Government of"the Territory of the United States northwest of the river Ohio"shall be and the same is hereby fixed and established at the"Town of Cincinnati in the county of Hamilton and that the"sessions of the Legislature shall in future be held in the said"Town of Cincinnati until otherwise determined by law." Thenfollows Section 2, and the certification of John Reily, Clerk of theHouse of Representatives that "this bill passed on Monday, the"21st of December, 1801."

Mr. Isaac Anderson Loeb, of Anderson, Indiana, forwardedan interesting broadside, consisting of a Proclamation by ThomasJ. Stephens, Mayor of Cincinnati, dated March 30, 1884, direct-ing persons to desist from lawlessness and calling upon all goodcitizens to rally for the preservation of the public peace, etc.This is a memento of the Cincinnati riot of that time.

A gift of choice manuscript letters has been received by theSociety from Miss Annie L. Roelker. It consists of 387 letters of asocial nature, addressed to the Hon. William Greene, and appearto have been written by close personal friends. One third ofthese were written by Frederick Grimke, Judge of the SupremeCourt of Ohio and an author, who died in Chillicothe in 1863.About 50 of the collection were written by Thomas Corwin; 16by Ephraim Peabody, for several years minister of the Unitarianchurch of Cincinnati; 10 by Salmon P. Chase; 21 by W. and A.Lovering; 7 by Henry Clay; 8 by John Pierpont; and there arefrom 1 to 3 letters from others, John Quincy Adams; WendellPhillips, Julia Ward Howe, Hiram Powers, Daniel Drake, Orville

I 5 6

Dewey, A. A. Livermore, Daniel Webster, Joseph Tillinghast,Timothy Walker, David B. Lawler, Frances Wright (d'Arus-mont), and from Rufus King, Sen., Edward King, Rufus King,Jr., Mrs. Sarah Peters, et al. Besides these letters are a numberof essays or compositions which may have been read at the oldSemi-colon Society of this city, of which Mr. Greene was one ofthe originators and the reader of the papers prepared by themembers.

With the manuscripts is a scrap-book of clippings (fromnewspapers) of articles from the pen of the Hon. William Greenethe original owner of this manuscript collection. He was born inWarwick, Rhode Island, January 1, 1797, the son of Ray Greene,U. S. Senator, grandson of Colonial Governor William Greene,1731-1809, and great grandson of William Greene, an earlierGovernor of the Colony of Rhode Island. After his graduationfrom Brown University he attended the Law School at Litchfield,Connecticut, from which he was graduated in 1817, and at theinstigation of a classmate, son of Governor Ethan Allen Brown,he came west and became the Governor's secretary, living inColumbus. Two years later, 1819, he came to Cincinnati wherehe practiced law but was far more interested in politics and inmatters of civic interest, although he never held office in Ohio.He was a strong abolitionist and was active in the William HenryHarrison campaign; was for many years a Trustee of the SchoolBoard with Nathan Guilford and Alexander McGuffey; and, hewas one of the founders of the Unitarian church of this city. In1821 he was married to Abigail Brackett Lyman, of North-ampton, Massachusetts, and upon her death in 1862 he returnedto Rhode Island, living on the ancestral farm. In 1866 he servedone term as Lieut. Governor for that State. The year followinghe married Mrs. Caroline Burge Matthewson, who survived him.His death occurred in March, 1883. He had two children by hisfirst wife, Anne Jean who died in 1831, and Catherine Ray, bornin Cincinnati Nov. 20, 1824, who married Feb. 1, 1853, FrederickRoelker, M. D., of Cincinnati, and it is to his daughter, Annie L.Roelker, that we are indebted for this valuable and useful gift.

Mr. Aaron A. Ferris presented to us two broadsides that areof interest to residents of the city: Soldiers Memorial of the Span-ish War of 1898, contains a Roll of members of Company M,10th Regiment, O. V. Infantry; and a Charter of the Delta Chap-

157

ter of the Phi Beta Kappa in the State of Ohio, in connectionwith the University of Cincinnati; also, 12 scrap-books of news-paper clippings, and 2 volumes of the Cincinnati Tribune, 1893,besides other volumes and numerous pamphlets.

A most attractive portrait of our Cincinnati artist, Charles T.Webber, painted during the latter part of his life by Miss AlarySpencer, has been given by her to the Society. It is a welcomeaddition to our collection of portraits of eminent men of the city,and the value of the gift is enhanced by the fact that it is the workof another well-known Cincinnati artist. Mr. Webber came tothis city in 1858 and died here April 5, 1911, at the age of 85. Ofhis many paintings the best known is the "Underground Rail-way." A list of the subscribers to the fund for the purchase ofthis painting of Webber's, accompanied the gift.

Miss Spencer presented also a pen and ink copy, of 15 pages,of a rare old manuscript in Mexican hieroglyphics, accompaniedby explanatory notes in English. It is a curious and interestingpaper.

From Mrs. W. R. Thrall we have received a fine engraving,size 36 x 45, engraved by John Sartain, from the painting "Menof Progress—American Inventors" painted by C. Schussele in1861 at Philadelphia. It represents nineteen of the best-knowninventors, of that date, evidently in attendance at a scientificgathering. The central figure being Morse exhibiting a smallmodel of his electric telegraph, and surrounding him are Dr.Morton, Bogardus, Colt, McCormick, Baxter, Peter Cooper,Goodyear, Mott, Prof. Henry, Dr. Nott, Ericsson, Burden, Hoe,Bigelow, Jennings, Blanchard, and Howe.

Mrs. Theodore Stanwood sent to the library a large sized pho-tograph of one of our eminent physicians, Dr. John AlexanderMurphy, who died in this city February 28, 1900.

Miss Jane C. Neave has given an old account book of CharlesNeave covering dates 1829 to 1852, and another one containingaccounts of Halsted Neave, 1868-1872; a silhouette cut in a cu-rious manner; a currency bill of 1781 and a Wheeling, Va., Ga-zette of early date.

Mrs. James T. Whittaker has donated a photograph of Cin-cinnati taken by D. C. Redington, August, 1880, which measures58 x 12 inches, exclusive of frame. The central point of interestis the Suspension Bridge spanning the Ohio.

As in past years we are greatly indebted to many HistoricalSocieties and Universities for their historical publications, and tonumerous other givers residing at a distance, as well as thosenearer home, who kindly remember us with gifts of volumes,pamphlets, and other desirable matter.
