Excerpt from Bulletin of the Free Library of Philadelphia, Vol. 7: Descriptive Account of the Lower Dublin Academy and of the Thomas Holme Branch of the Free Library of Philadelphia; With Address Delivered May 23, 1906 A copy of this manuscript has been made for the printers, should it be possible to find necessary funds to publish the book, and so the origi nal manuscript can always be preserved intact. It is interesting to know that the Catalogue of the Holme Free Library of Holmesburg, dated May I, 1898, was the first book ever actually printed in Holmesburg. The work was done by Edgar B. Morrison, who was at that time the Librarian. The best accounts of the School and Academy will be found in Mr. George S. Clark's Sketch of the Library, prefaced to the above-mentioned Catalogue, the Reverend Dr. S. F. Hotchkin's Bristol Pike, and, of course, in the Willits Manuscript. The Athenaeum Building, now converted into a Trust Company's Headquarters, was erected by the Odd Fellows in 1850, and was for a long time used as the Town Hall. The Thomas Holme Free Library was established in one of the rooms of this building, but after some years it was found to be absolutely necessary to obtain larger quarters than could be found in the Athenaeum. Early in 1898 Messrs. George S. Clark, Jonathan Rowland and Henry V. Massey, a committee represent ing the Trustees of the Lower Dublin Academy, placed themselves in communication with the Board of Trustees of The Free Library of Phila delphia, and it quickly became apparent that there was an opening for a great public work if the two corporations would work together. Mr. Benjamin Franklin Crispin, a lineal descendant of Thomas Holme, was then President of the Lower Dublin Academy Board. Mr. Crispin died in July, 1898. At an advanced age. And Mr. Andreas Hartel was elected President to succeed him, and still holds that office. Many of the most important movements for the advancement of the library have been suc cessfully carried out during Mr. Hartel's administration, and he has always taken a most active and influential part in aiding to develop the Library movement in Holmesburg.
