The Finest Cloister Ever Erected.

Through this majestic portal you enter a
quadrangle about six hundred feet square,
inclosed by lofty cloister which Bishop
Heber pronounced the finest that was ever
erected. He declared that there was no
other quadrangle to be compared to it
either in size or proportions or beauty. In
the center of this wonderful Enclosure is a
building that resembles a miniature temple.
1t Is not large, and it's low roof and far
projecting caves give 1t the appearance of
a tropical bungalow. 1t is built of the
purest marble, No other material was used
in It's construction. There is not a nail
or a screw or an ounce of metal of any
kind in its walls, and very little cement or
mortar was used. Each piece of stone fits
the others perfectly that there was no
need of bolts or anything to hold it In place.
1t stands upon a pedestal four feet high
and is crowned with a low white dome that
glistens in the sunlight like a piece of pol
ished metal. The walls of this wonderful
building are pillars of marble inclosing
panel OF the same material sawed In very
