The society has very fine library, con-
tanning many rare and important books,
pamphlets and newspapers, to which it is
impossible to do justice in. the space of a
newspaper article. Perhaps as interesting
as any, is copy of the first newspaper
published in the state, the Vermont Ga
sette, dated Monday, April I'd, 1881, vol. /,
No. 8, Westminster. Printed by Judah
Paddock, Alden Spooner and Timothy
Green.
There are also files of the Richmond
Wing, during the time of the rebellion.
This also was presented by Mr.. Leaven-
worth, who was a captain In the ninth
Vermont, and was assistant provost-mar-
shal in Richmond after its capture in April
1866.
The work of the Historical society well
deserves the assistance of every citizen OF
the state. There are still extant many
memorials and relics of the olden time
which will disappear il not stored in some
safe place at once. No depository can be
more secure and gratifying than the library
ard museum OF the Historical society, and
it is to be hoped that the next year will wit
ness large accessions to its treasures.
In accordance with suggestion from the
president of the society, that the librarian
shall cause to be published in the newspa-
pers monthly statements of additions to the
collections of the society, we append a list
of such additions for the month Of Novem-
Der, 1876, furnished by M. d. Gilman, Ii
brarian and cabinet keeper, to whose efforts
much OF the success of the society for the
past two years is due
