THE WoRK OF a Scnextor.-It was the pleasure of the writer to recently visit the Marble Works of Weekes Bros. Our attention was particularly arrested by one monument which de- serves high comment, as it is some- thing very seldom seen in this locality, or in fact in many of the larger, towns and cities where inerble firms are much more numerous than in :Exeter. This monument proper, is 7 feet, 2 inches high and has 4 lovely draped urn rest- ing on the top. it is in the figure it- self, which is symbolic of . 'Remem- brance," where the true and ex cellent work of the sculptor is to be seen. This figure is 3 feet 2 inches high. The countenance and the other portions' of the figure also are ail - Most naturally beautiful. Every - turn of the chisel it seems has moulded an expression truly good and pleasing to look at. Every line is distinct and proves conclusively that the sculptor is one of the topmost rank, Mr. W. D. Weeks performed the work and has a just tight to feel elated, over his suc- cess with it and his ability in this line. • ellefea•414"-"Aliee-aerieraeleffeeeliera•elitera4i)reeeeere , 4E! eady for inspection.
