pate that the business of the occupants of
this building will be greatly enhanced, by
reason of their occupation of building
which affords ample room for an attrac.

Richardson's estate on Depot street, and
fronting the square, is the elegant dwell
ling built and occupied by f. w. Marsh,
of the firm of Robbins IL Marsh. To full
ly describe this residence, would be too
voluminous, brief description must
therefore suffice. The main part of the
structure is two stories high, Of 40 feet
front by 81 feet in depth, surmounted by
slated French roof, with dormer win
dows, with an l. running back CD feet,
20 feet wide. Three sides of this house
are surrounded by verandah, which is
supported by paneled pillars of neat de-
sign.
The interior arrangements of the struc-
and for elegance and beauty of design
cannot be surpassed in Windsor County,
at least. An admirable thing about the
building is the thoroughness of workman
ship in its construction: There is no
where slight or sham, every material
used was first class and the working de-
tails have been watched from the first
with scrupulous care. The result is one
of the finest and handsomest building in
Vermont. Much credit is due TO j. b.
Crane, who has had the oversight of the
carpentry.
