Featured Artifact of the Week

Library Postcard

Colored postcard featuring the J.V. Fletcher Library as it looked in 1910. The 1895 building was expanded in the 1980s into its present shape. The back has a George Washington one-cent stamp. On the back, there is a note to Miss Margaret Hooper of Groton, Vermont, from Katharine Allen:

[sic]Got your letter, and will write soon. I’m up here for two weeks, I am going to camp at Forge Pond Saturday, but I hope there won’t be any spy-glasses around. I’ll send you the pictures as soon as I get home.
Katherine Allen
