I have to say that I'm kind of surprised how much I enjoyed learning a little bit about Murdoch C. Smith and the Port Williams Library. Growing up, he was an avid reader but found it difficult to find suitable reading material in his pursuit of knowledge. Upon his death, Dr. Smith donated what became close to $85,000 and with the help of the town, erected the village's first and only public library which still operates today!
