Ref. The HERALD, Everett, WA. Date: Sat July 12, 2003 Section: Local Section Site: http://www.heraldnet.com/about Article: City considers future use of the old library building By Jennifer Warnick, Herald Writer SNOHOMISH-"It could be a new city hall. A senior center. An alternative high school. A cultural ans arts center. A museum dedicated to local history." etc. COMMENT: I am one who recommended it be a new Senior Center, complete with ramp access which would need to be added, but my suggestion will probably fall upon deaf ears. I know that the present Snohomish Senior Center will eventually have to be replaced with a newer, more spacious one, and one that Snohomish can be really proud of. Be that as it may, I will skip to a paragraph in the article that took my eye: "In the months to come, city officials say they will discuss all the options for the Carnegie Building. One thing remains to be seen - whether the long-reported ghost of a former librarian, Catharine McMurchy, hitched a ride to the new library or stayed behind. We're not quite sure if she's going to be here," said Snohomish a managing librarian, Rebecca Loney. But that's the beauty of the public library - we turn no one away!" (Please refer to my article with Subject Title "and a touch of genealogy." and read my comments re the ghost of Catharine McMurchy and my tho'ts on the subject. Also, on WHOM is the real Catharine McMurchy, our beloved Librarian from the Past whose "ghost" has been bandied about by newcomers who didn't know her, and her sister Anna, let alone those persons who appeared in supposed photographs - but were in error, despite having been informed of the errors in identification. The "dust" may never settle ! Carroll in Snohomish * * * 30 * * *
