The Walls of the Quarry 
Underground Sfjiarry at I Vest Rutland , Vermont 
mean very little to an outsider. In fact, they appear rather grimy and 
forbidding. But to the skilled quarryman they are never lacking 
in interest. He can see underneath the surface the outlines of the 
finished memorial. He has taken out thousands of blocks and he 
knows just where to look for good marble. 
In our underground quarry at AVest Rutland there is a stretcli of tunnel 2,000 feet 
long', and 300 feet below tbe surface. Its maximum width is about 700 feet. In 
order to facilitate tbe work of taking out blocks an electric car system bas been 
installed, beginning at tbe moutb of tbe quarry in an inclined cable track, and extending 
for hundreds of feet out into tbe tunnel.
