Library
Steps lead from the Music Room to the Library. There were 7,000 volumes here before they were removed by Mrs. Yount. The present volumes are gifts to Spindletop from members. The grey stone Tudor mantel was removed from Trentham Hall, Staffordshire, England. The bronze doors open onto the porte-cochere. An oriental Persian rug, reported to have cost over $40,000, originally lay over the hardwood floor. The steps, too, were formerly covered in matching carpet. The stairs on the right of the mantel lead to the Elizabethan Living Room (Oak Room).
