New Dudley Memorial Near Lamont Library Completed

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Final scars left in back of Lamont Library during its construction were removed yesterday when landscapers finished work on the new Dudley Memorial. It replaces the one torn down when Lamont was built.

The memorial, an ornamental terrace and sundial, honors Governor Thomas Dudley of Massachusetts Bay Colony, one of the College's founders. Reached by stone steps starting between Wiggles worth A entry and Lamont, the memorial also consists of two semi-circular stone sists of two semi-circular stone benches benches located behind the Class of 1680 Gate on Massachusetts Avenue.

Inscriptions

Inscriptions on the benches are the same as the ones on the benches in the original memorial. They read, "One of they founders him New England know, who staid they feeble sides when thou wast low" and "who spent his state, his strength, and years with care, what after comers in them might have share."
