ton monument whicl had d for years
in au unfinished sta e, and when IA the
centennial year co _ ess made an ap-
propriation for the he question
suggested to the minds of en;ineers and
others was whether or nob . e founda-
tion was secure and safe fo I the saper-
s ructuro. The many ye rs that bud'
elapsed since the comme einent of the
work, and those that ha passed during
which it had been le unprotected to
face the stories, winr s and changes of
temperature, caused he opinion to exist
that the base of the -haft ,did not have
as strong and dural e a resting place as it
required,
In the outset, and •on the resumption
of the work, it was decd ed not to carry
the monument to the h ight first con-
templated in the plans , nd it was re-
duced a number of fee . This change
was made in order thathe weight the
foundation had been 1 id to carry would,.

more secure to su. ort the remainder.
Competent and experienced engincprs.
made a thorough • aiamination and several
tests of the grow d walls, extensive exca-
vations were ope : ed up to permit the dos -

submitted to the e' -et -that the founda-
tion was in prime co , 'tion, strong and
durable. But to make 't doubly sure the
earth was removed fro., about the lower
walls for some distant , and every crack

The monument w+ s• carried to•comple-

the timid and we, k hearted, who were,
on the watch to s.e it tumble. It is not
