Their developing of the Huntington Mar
BILE Quarry" situated in SALISBURY
about two mile from the railroad at
White Creek. The grade Is favorable,
and a track could be laid with cOmpar-
atively small expense. This quarry,
which was one Of the earliest of the good
ones worked in the State, was leased
some twenty years ago to practical bust
ness men and marble dealers of Rutland
and Troy, both of whom died within a
week of each other, after much of the
machinery, derricks, ETC., had been pur-
chased for working 1t. Such a cOinci-
dencc put an end to carrying out the
plans started, and it is only Of late that
titles and leases could be fully perfected.
The marble is of superior quality for
fineness and Wilderness, and the long,
broad and heavy blocks, which have re-
NAMED at the quarry for so many years,
testify to the possibility of its being
worked successfully. II.
