" The lot was valued by them at $4, 000. They also offered to pay $;6, 000 towards the erection of such a building and $4, 000 towards the 27 purchase of books for the Athenfeura, making a total of $14, 000, upon condition that, before the following June, the sum of $10, 000 more be made up, to be applied to the building, and $4, 000 more towards the purchase of books, by the subscriptions of responsible persons, and exclusive of moneys received for shares to be sold in the Athenteum. The offer... was accepted b}^ the board. The committee ap- pointed to collect the necessary subscriptions met with immediate success, the sum of $15, 604. 50, an excess of $1, 604. 50 above the required amount, being subscribed by 196 individuals and firms. Most of the subscribers to the fund, together with others, took shares in the new institution, fixed constitutionally at fifteen dol- lars, enabling the library to open with a membership of 291. In the meantime the subject of the erection of the building by the Athenjeum for its own accommodation and that of the His- torical and Franklin societies had early engaged the attention of the board of directors.
