Tho soldiers Monument FoundatIon

The foundation of the Soldiers Monu-
ment is very solid. 1t is to be about thirteen
feet deep and between six and seven feet of
1t will extend above the street. Around the
foundation, and ten feet from it will be a
curbing, about eighteen inches high, and
from this to the top of the foundation there
will be grassy slope. The huge granite
shaft will rest on the four walls Of the foun-
dation, and as there will be a hollow in
side of the shaft it will be seen that there
will be hollow space from the bottom of
the foundation to very near the point where
the figure is placed. There is no special
reason given fol leaving this hollow space,
except that il makes but little difference in
the solidity of the structure. and besides, it
saves time and material.
