We recently discovered a handwritten document in our collection titled “Ware 1913”  It has a lot of fascinating information about town institutions, organizations, businesses and prominent citizens of the day.  We have added a transcription of this document to our website.  If you would like to see the original document, please come during library hours and ask to have a look.
