Marblehead's public library, where the talk was given, dates to 1876 and is named for the philanthropist Benjamin Abbot.
In the 1870s, Abbot donated to the town the sum of $103,000, a substantial portion of which was used to build a new town hall on the town training field. The first floor of the stunning new Abbot Hall housed the public library until 1954 when the present library was built on Pleasant Street.
