This appropriation by the As sembly is the earliest known instance in the present United States of a governmental con tribution for such a purpose.” The Library was almost total ly destroyed by the greet fire in 1778, and little was done during the years immediately following the Revolution to replace the bodes. Books were bought in 1792 that form the basis of the present Library, which in Feb ruary, 1945, totaled nearly 70,000 volumes and pamphlets. The Apprentice? Library, founded in 1824, was threaten ing to eclipse the older institu tion when it was merged with it in 1874.
