Larkin G. Mead the Man to Carve
the Dewey Statue,

Col. E. G. Benton of Boston, q native OF
Guildhall, is credited with making the first
suggestion for placing statue of Admiral
Dewey at the entrance of the state house at
Montpelier as Q companion figure to the
statue of Ethan Allen. This suggestion came
in speech delivered during the last session
of the legislature at hearing on the question
of moving the shire of Essex county from
Guildhall to Island Pond. The responses are
SO numerous, so enthusiastic and so substan-
tial that the success of the project is assured
Col. Benton has recently received contri-
button from Larkin G.. Mead, now of Flor
ence, Italy, who, as lad in Bratteboro, was
first introduced to fame as the author of the
beautiful snow statue, The Recording Angel,
and who in later years became the sculptor
of the striking statue of Ethan Allen that now
adorns the state house portico. The "eternal
fitness of things" would be conspicuously OBJ.
served should the commission for the Dewey
monument be entrusted to this son of Yer
mont and his God-given genius for the best
creations of his art. Patriotism and state
pride would lend inspiration to the cold steel
of his chisel, confessedly one of the most skill
tul of modern times.
Rome G. Brown, Esq of Minneapolis, a
self e1patriated son of Vermont and of Mont
pelier, chairman of the Minneapolis commit
tee, reports that Vermonters in Minnesota
have raised $500 for the statue and that their
full contribution is to be $1,000. Col Benton
receives many interesting letters accompany
ing contributions.
