Background
In 1803 the Scioto Company brought books along with them to establish a lending library in their frontier Village of Worthington. Two hundred years later books traveled on the Bicentennial Wagon Train from Martins Ferry to Worthington. June White, Worthington school teacher traveled with the Wagon Train caring for the books along the entire route to Worthington, arriving on July 5th during the Homecoming Parade. The lead wagon with Governor and Mrs. Taft on board stopped in front of the library and June presented Worthington Libraries Director, Meribah Mansfield with the books.
