Show THE TEMPLE. Work on the Temple has ceased and the walls have been covered for the winter. This is owing to the early and severe cold weather which rendered it impossible to do good mason work. The height of the building is, on the south side and east end, nearly 60 feet, and on the north side and west end, over 50 feet. The saw mill, wood camp, and three rock quarries will remain in operation and hauling from them continue as long as the weather will permit. A number of stone cutters will be kept at work cutting sandstone and dressing the black marble for the building, and a few other laborers will stay on the block. |
