the Quincy quarries, where the atone
came from and has seen lota of It, says
that the stone la all right He further
says that he never saw anything which
came from Massachusetts, but what was
all right. In this statement ha is backed
up by two or three other native son
and daughter of the old Bay Star, who
are holding down jobs in the statt house,
