The Washington National Monument So- ciety WSS organized in pursuance of resolu-_ tions of Congress, in 1933, with John Mar- sball, the great Chief Justice, as its first Pres- ident. On Dis death, im 1935, he was succeeded by ex-President Madison, then in the 85th year of bis age. Tre ist Vice President of the So. ciety was Judge Willam Cranch, an eminent jurist, distinguished ss a just and impartial magistrate, and for the purity of his lite. In 1-47 the aggregate of collections and accumu. Isted interest being $57,000, the Society felt justified in beginning the erection of the mon- ament. The site selected was the public res- eryation numbered 3 on the plan of the city of Washington, containing upwards of thirty acres, near the Potomac river, directly west cf the Capitol, and south of the President's House. It presents a beautifal view of the Potomac; is so elevated that the monument can be seen from all parts of the city and the sur- rounding country, and being a public reserva- ton, is safe from any future obstruction of the vie A plan for the monument was adopted, after wide consultation with experienced and ju- o:cious experts, and @ careful comparison of the yartous t regs submitted, as well with each ober a8 with an ideal standard of excellence. ‘The one selected proposed an obelisk 517 feet high, and @ pantheon or base. The obelisk was estimated to cost $552,000, and the whole work, sucluding obelisk and pantheon, 81,122,000. ‘The anniversary of American Independence Was chosen as x fit day for laying a corner- stone of a monument to its hero On the Fourth of July, iis, under a bright sky, in the presence of the President and Vice President the United States, Senators and Represen- atives in Congress, the Heads of the Execu- tive Departments, ard other oificers, Execu- uve and Judicial, of the Government, the Cor- porate Authorities of Washington and George- wn, and Alexandria, military companies, associations of many Gescriptions, delegations trom States and Territories of the Union and from several Indian tribes, and a countless multitude, Robert O. Winthrop, Speaker of the House of Representatives, pronounced an uent oration on the occasion; ether ad- ivered; and tbe corner-stone laid of @ “Great National Monument to memory of Washington at the seat o the Federal Government.” The board of managers at once commenced active opera- tons, Wich were vigorously prosecnied. In bout 8'x years from the laytng of the corner- -oue they were enabled to raise the obelisk to ie height of 70 teet, being a little more than e-third of its proposed ultimate elevation. ©n the work hus far done $239,000, the whole amount cf collections, inciuding interest on investments, from the origin of ihe society. were expended. The foundation e obelisk was laid eighty-one feet square, ht feet below the surface of thegrouna, and s obelisk 18 contracted in its progress so as esixty-one feet ten inches at the top, an evation of twenty-five feet of solid masonry. Yvis commenced ‘at the height o vod @ half feet above the ground, fif'y-ff square, cased With marble, with walls Mftsen teet thick, leaving a cavity of twenty-five feet.

The history of mankind affords no paratlel to this.” The meeting for the organization of the Washington National Monument Society, under the act of mcorporation granted by Con- gress, was held on the 22d of March, 1959, and the following officers were elected: Jame: Buchanan, President of the United States, President cz oficio; the Mayor of Washington, ist Vice President: General Winfield Scott, 24 Vice President: Thomas Carberry, 3d Vice President; J. 8.

The present income of the Society is about $1,000 per year, which is expended in keeping the buildings In repair and other necessary outlays The late William A. Bradley was an efficient and enthusiastic member of the Society, and on Bis death Hon. John Mf. Broadhead was elected to fill the vacancy.
