The building will be of pressed brick, laid in
white martar and two stories high, with an
Italian roof and the windows and cornice of
galvanized iron. The buttresses and steps will
Be of white marble and the interior woodwork
will be of ash and what is known as hard wood.
Mr.. Martin Woody has the contract for the

This will be the largest private, residence in
