Description

Three Daughters of the American Revolution at Hoquiam Library with framed Honor Roll of Patriots of American Revolution.  
Thanks to Sam Talley, who notes: "Hoquiam's  library was built in 1910 with a $20,000 grant from the Andrew Carnegie Foundation. It opened in 1911. The architectural design is called Prairie School. In the 1960's we liked to study there because of the high ceilings and wood interior, along with the fire in the fireplace. The rainy weather outside gave us a cozy atmosphere inside in which to study. A large grandfather clock's ticking could be heard throughout the floor. Everyone respected the 'No Talking' rule because you could hear a whisper in that place."
