Sullivan quarry at Brad- ford and shipped by rail to Westerly to the Joseph Coduri Granite compsny op Oalk street is the largast plece of gran- ite known to be quarried for 2 hottem base. The huge stone when landed out of the quarry was 43 feet long, 10-4 feet thick. When finished it will be 37 1-4 feet long, 9 1-6 feet wide and 1 1-§ feet thick. It will be used as a base for monument at Woodlawn cemetery, in Brookiyn, N. Y, The other part of the monument Was quarried by the Sulll- van Quarry company. It was trawspart- ed here on a special car belonging to the company and a special engine and crew was spent from Midwey. One of the unusual feats in quarry- ing this stone was the cutting from 2 huge block of granite several, times its thickness. The holes wers “Ift holes” and were drilled horisontally and im- stead of being separatsd from the baf- ance of the stone by wedges it was broken by the use of sieam, 3 Tamthod discovered by the Suliivan company. An unusually fine pattern the base is as this method of quarrying lemves the bottom of the stone level. It is comsid- ered a perfect stone, free from flww or defect of any kind.
