men would have believed him.

The work of building tne fort fell
upon negro slaves, Indians and pris-
liners Of war. Every stone laid in it
represented the misery Of toiling,
suffering humanity during a period
of a century and half. When COM
pleted, however, it was considered a
masterpiece. While in the posses
sion of the British it was considered
the prettiest fort in the kings do
monions OF this grim old fortress,
with it's meats, barbicans, draw
bridges, frowning bastions and it's
mysterious dungeons in which, years
ago, two skeletons were found in
cages, Margaret Deland says: There
is no watch now; the fort has nothing
to fear. Visitors come and go, or
down in the grass-grown moat a thin,
white donkey wanders about, crop
ping hungrily at the tufted thistles
that stand in the angles of the bar
bican or crowd like sentinels around
a stone which may have tumbled
from the ramparts. The offensive
attitude of these thistles, brave in
green and silver and with pink cock
AIDES, is the only warlike thing about
the peaceful fort"
AS the building approaches COM
pletion it's peculiar outlines make it
a prominent feature of the north end
of the Exposition grounds.
