We take Highway 49 towards Anthony, KS. The sign says we’re on the Old Chisholm Trail.

Anthony, Kansas is a nice little town with wide streets. The houses sit on big lots with clean well tended lawns. Hours for the Anthony Public Library today are 9-11am and 1-7:30pm. We get a friendly greeting from the worker behind the front desk. This is the new library built in 1995- 1996. She shows us a photo album compiled as a 4-H project detailing the progress of this building. There is an internet station available so I get permission to send an e-mail to my boss and a co-worker. They’ve been supportive of our questing plan and will want to hear a bit about our experiences so far. We get directions to the Carnegie building and quickly find it. The dark red brick building is now home to a dance studio. The plaque by the front steps says: This building given the people of Anthony by Andrew Carnegie of New York City A.D. MCMIX Mauran- Russell- Architects.
