Below this, on the sub plinth is an ex-
celens specimen OF sculpture in bas relief,
carved from the block itself. 1t represents
Mr.. Avery in the act Of presenting Bible
to a Christianized and civilized Anglo
African woman, and pointing her and
group of FIVE or six Africans to the Mis-
sionary ship, which is seen in the back
ground, with her full sails bellying to the
wind" Two Africans in chains, and
seated on the ground, with sad, down.
cast look, form significant part OF the
group. A temple Of Justice is also seen
in the distance The figures are all excel
lent, and that of Mr.. Avery is particularly
life-like and spirited On each of the pro-
jecting corners which divide the panels of
the shaft, are torches inverted. The cor
nice, which is too heavy, and gives the
monument "squattish" look, is surmount-
ed by a sub plinth, with sustains the Pc
destal and statue. The statue represents
Mr.. Avery in his accustomed dress. One
hand rests on suitable support, and the
other hangs by his side, and one foot is
slightly advanced. The dress-coat is but
toned tightly in front, and the statue faces
eastwardly Gf we have the points of the
compass correctly in mind
The attitude is that of one speaking to
an audience, and is highly effective. From
its size and elevation it needs to be viewed
at some distance to obtain a correct idea of
it. AS whole, it is work of great ar.
tistic merit, and the name of the scul ptor,
L. Verhogen, of New York, is deserving of
special mention Those who have visited
the most notable cemeteries of the country
say there is no monument in any of them
which will surpass this in artistic merit and
good taste in design. We hear its cost
stated-we do not speak er cathedra-at
between SIT 900 and $4,000. 1t forms a
special feature of our beautiful cemetery,
and will be for some time visited by
hundreds daily.
