Our illustration of the Wight menforial shows a hand- 
some piece of work to be erected by the W. F. Cook 
Granite Co., Springfield, Mass. It is a graceful, classic 
design of architectural beauty and harmony of decoration. 
It is 6-6x4-9 at the base, and is to be of Pink Westerly 
granite. The total height will be about 10-8. Both sides 
will be finished alike, and all exposed surfaces 12 cut. The 
architecture is a modification of the Ionic, the Scammozzie

capital being substituted for the ordinary Ionic one for 
the reason that the memorial is equally exposed on the 
front and end. 
One of the accompanying illustrations shows a very in- 
teresting and original form of boulder memorial, recently 
erected in Oak Hill Cemetery, Youngstown, O., on the lot 
of a pioneer New Englander, Norman Andrews, who 
came to Youngstown in the beginning of the past century 
and lived a useful life. The stone is on a high promon- 
tory overlooking the Mahoning river valley, and is re- 
garded by good critics to be one of the best of its kind 
in the country. The design is by J. A. Schweinfurth, of 
Brookline, Mass., and the work by Evans & Co., of Bos- 
ton. The only carving, as will be observed, is a simple 
oak branch, with leaves and fruit, and wreath of the same

encircling the names of those that the stone was erected 
to memorialize. It is of pink Milford granite, of a linish 
not usually seen, and of gracefully tapering, pyramidal 
form. The stone was erected under the supervision of 
Mr. Volney Rogers, park commissioner of Youngstown, 
who was executor of the Andrews estate.

The Moore monument is an excellent piece of granite 
work, of good proportions, decorated in good taste, and 
a little away from the beaten track of design in cemetery 
monuments. It stands in the Arlington National Ceme- 
tery, Arlington, Va., and w'as erected from Blue Westerly 
granite by The Kyle Granite Co., of Washington, D. C,, 
who have copyrighted the design.
