 | | In the early 1900s, Edward Tuck, a successful international financier living in Paris, donated funds to build a new library for the Society. |
 | | Tuck, a native of Exeter, and his wife, Julia (1850-1928), were generous philanthropists in New Hampshire and in France throughout their lives. |
 | | Tuck also established the Amos Tuck School of Business at his alma mater, Dartmouth College, named in honor of his father, who was a U.S. Congressman from New Hampshire and a leader in establishing the Republican Party in the mid-1850s. |
