Book Descriptions:
Excerpt from Collections of the Maine Historical Society, Vol. 8

At a meeting of the Maine Historical Society, held at Brunswick, on the twenty-third day of November, 1880, a tender of large and convenient rooms in the city building at Portland, by the government of that city, to this Society, for its general uses, free of rent, was considered by the Society, and, after a full discussion, was accepted. A committee, consisting of James P. Baxter and Lewis Pierce, Esquires, and Gen. John M. Brown, was appointed to superintend the removal of the library and cabinet, and the setting up of the same in the new rooms. This work was so well and promptly done, that the rooms were put in readiness for occupancy by the Society, with its books and other treasures, on the second day of February, 1881. On that day, a meeting of the Society was held in the quarters thus made ready for it, and which in the evening were thrown open to members of the Society and invited guests.

This meeting was very largely attended, and was addressed by the President, Hon. James W. Bradbury, in an able and interesting speech, and by other gentlemen. The proceedings of these meetings, and the addresses at the latter, have been reported in full, and will be published in the first volume of the "Proceedings" of the Society, for which series of publications provision was made.

At the business meeting of the Society, it was voted that its publications, in future, should consist of its documentary collections, and of its proceedings.
