began. At a meeting held March 24, 1884, it was resolved to lay the
corner stone on June 3, and at the same meeting a special subscription
was authorized for the columns of the building, to stand as memorials

stone the subscriptions had reached nearly $100,000. The edifice was
carried to its present partial state of completion within the year.
