Many Beautiful
Buildings Made
of Maine Granite

Though Hallowcll granite just at
present is represented only by it's
output Of paving stone, yet the town
on the kennebec has many a splen-
did monument in enduring form
, throughout the country. Perhaps the
most striking of these monuments is
the National Monument 10 the Fore
fathers" at Plymouth. A part Of that
was cut at the Hallowell granite
works. Among those engaged upon it
were Achille Falconi. ST.. Pietro
Pellegrini and Protasio> Neri. whose
work was really that OF artists in
stead OF what we ordinarily know as
stone-c cutting.
Then the Pilgrim monument at
, ProvinCetowr, copy in its design of
the Tore del Maneia at Siena. Italy.
IS of native granite. Another artistic
monument of Hallowell granite is the
Sphinx Monument" in beautiful Mt.
Auburn cemetery, Cambridge, Mass.
Martin Milmore was the sculptor.
Other monuments OF Halowell
granite are the Pullman monument
| in Chicago. the National monument
- Yorktown. the soldiers monument
in New Haven. the Hunt memorial,
Central park, New York and the I:u-
gene Hale memorial Ellsworth, Me.
Many mauSoleums have been con-
sSructod of this beautiful stone. al
most as effective as marble. Among
them are the Governor Hill mauso-
lcum in Augusta and the Gannett
mausoleum in the same city, and
large edifices in New York City.
Pittsburg and Cincinnati. Even as
far south as New Orleans Hallowell
granite has gone for this purpose
Public buildings. also. numerous
and splendid. stand as a memorial 10
Hallowell resources and industry.
The capitol at Albany. n. Y. has
much of it in its buildings, the Ma =
sonic Tample. the National Shawmut
bank and the Suffolk Savings bank.
the addition to the First National
hank are examples. In Annapolis are
the library and academic buildings.
Chicago has the Illinois Trust COM
pany building, the Continental bank
building and the Marshall Field
building. In far-away Houston.
Texas. the postoffice Is of Hallowell
granite.
One OF the most interesting build
ings which contain the local stone is
the Hall of Records in New York
City. The figures which adorn it
were cut in Hallowell by some of the
most skilfull Italian granite cutters.
who were really. as we have said be-
fore. artists and sculptors.
While the present output is only
the lowly paving stone. the plant and
the stone are still adequate for nobler
work and It is to be hoped that some
of the old glory of the stone cutting
industry may come backto Hallowell.
