Among the blocks recently raised in
the marble company's quarries at West
Rutland were four weighing from 20 to
20 tons each. Each block will furnish
one of the lions for the monument to
President Mckinley at Buffalo. The
blocks were so large and heavy that it
was found expedient to reduce their
weight by trimming them in the quarry
to thelsize actually needed for the figures.
