I am happy to have lived to see it functioning fully and so well received by the people of Tompkins County. Letter from Sherman Peer, dated February 2?, 19^9, to Mrs. John Vandervort, chairman of the trustees of the Tompkins County Public Library. Sherman Peer searched the records of the Cornell Library Association, many other written sources, and his own rich memories to write this history. A prominent Ithaca attorney who enjoyed writing and story-telling, Mr. Peer completed his work on it in 1964, when he was 81 years old. The epilogue was written by Mary Tibbets Freeman, and the manuscript was prepared for presentation at the formal dedication of the Tompkins County Library Building on April 20, 19&9. The historian also shaped the library's history by assisting in its successful rebirth as a public institution in its second century. He was convinced that the Cornell Public Library, operated since 1866 by the private Cornell Library Associa tion founded by Ezra Cornell, needed public funds for a new building and continuing support.

BARNES & CO. 1884 I J CO MY DEAR MOTHER, WHOSE AFFECTIONATE DEVOTION, FRUGAL ECONOMY, WISE COUNSEL, PATIENT FIDELITY AND CHEERFUL BEARING CONTRIBUTED SO MUCH TO THE ACHIEVEMENTS RECORDED HEREIN, THIS VOLUME IS DEDICATED AS A TRIBUTE OF FILIAL GRATITUDE AND REVERENCE. PREFACE. FOR several years it has been the author's de- sire that a suitable biography of the FOUNDER OF THE CORNELL UNIVERSITY should be prepared by another, whose cultured pen would invest the work with that degree of interest to which the subject is so worthily entitled. Exacting duties have, however, delayed such an undertaking, and still prevent any reasonable promise of its early consummation. Mainly for the purpose of placing the material in form for safe preservation for future use, this simple record of the leading incidents of his earnest life and untiring labors has been pre- pared, which, it is hoped, may hereafter serve as a text-book of facts requisite for the more inter- esting treatment of the subject by other and abler hands. Prepared originally for private use, it is realized that the work is deficient of any literary and that merit which would justify its publication, vi PREFACE. course has finally been taken only at the urgent solicitation of interested friends. Time has already largely depleted the ranks of those familiar with the early history of the tele- graph enterprise in America, and but few now re- main with us who participated in the pioneer work with which the subject of this sketch was so in- timately associated.
