Another significant building of C. W. Dickey is the Alexander and Baldwin Building built in 1929. The Alexander and Baldwin Building is a four story building with steel frame with concrete casting, very much like its contemporary concrete-cast architecture in Chicago. However, what makes it Hawaiian is its overhanging Dickey Roof. In addition, this building is significant in its blend of Oriental ornament with Western design, reflecting upon the historical relevance of Hawaii.

The Second Empire architecture that inspired this building reflects the popularity of the French designs during the reign of Napoleon III. As one beholds the exterior of the courthouse from top to bottom, it displays the distinctly cut angles of native limestone along with the craftsmanship of ornamental features.

The architectural plans originally lacked the two five-sided privy buildings. They showed a different arrangement of how the palisade joined the sentry houses. The plans also illustrate a different configuration of stone steps for the north entrance of the Main Building than the archaeological evidence revealed. A cement floor was planned for the southeastern and southwestern basement rooms, which originally were dirt. Of the pieces of marble recovered during the excavation, the percentages and types did not correspond to the plans proposed for the marble floor of the main foyer. “Sherds of the original window glass were greener and more irregular than the window glass planned for use in the reconstruction. Recovered fragments of the original plaster revealed only plain struck molding, while the plans allowed for the use elaborate geometric designs in plaster. These comments highlight a contrast in the restoration philosophies of the era: Should the restoration be done as it actually was or as it was believed Governor Tryon would have wanted it to be” . This is another example of altering historical memory by producing the image that was wanted for

Millford plantation is a historic place located on SC 261, west of Pinewood, SC. Built in 1839-1841, Millford Plantation is considered by many to be the finest example of Greek revival residential architecture in America. The house is located in such a remote section of rural SC that it comes to a surprise to first time visitors, who must drive over miles of dirt roads and through thick forests to reach the house. The house has massive columns, sixteen foot windows, a domed rotunda enclosing a spectacular staircase. All these impressive features are inherent in Greek Rival architecture (Classical American Homes).

A once celebrated monument of Robert E. Lee was constructed years after the civil war. This monument was paraded down the streets in Virginia before being placed on Monument Avenue. The monument, eventually accompanied by others, located on Monument Avenue stood as a beacon to southern pride and heritage. Wealthy white southerners flocked to these streets to be the first to build homes in the presence of their widely respected Confederate hero’s monument.

The front of the façade was adorned with floral coffers, corbels, as well as post and lintels (Photo 2).

Our walk continues through the fields to Lartington Hall. Built in 1635 during the reign of Charles I, Lartington Hall was the ancestral home of the Maires family. They were one of the North’s wealthiest Catholic families, whose ancestry has been traced to the twelfth-century Lords of Appleby. The hall served as a Red Cross convalescent home during the war and after extensive restoration it became a hotel. The restored gardens were originally laid out by architect Joseph Hansom, most famous for introducing the Hansom

After the French and Indian War, tension was increasing in the English Colonies due to over taxation laws. In March of 1770, hatred between the colonists and the British soldiers erupted into fighting in an event known as the Boston Massacre. The Boston Massacre was a significant event in the American Independence movement. The source of the conflict with the British troops and the Bostonians was the Townshend Act in 1767, three years prior to the massacre. The primary sources in this collection of documents are of different accounts of the massacre: a pamphlet of the testimony of William Wyatt, an article from the Boston Gazette and Country Journal, a sketch by Paul Revere, an account of Captain Thomas Preston, and a court case from John Adams. These documents expose the turmoil of that day from different perspectives of Bostonians and British soldiers. They also show how some colonial leaders used this event to advance the patriot cause. The account of Captain Thomas Preston said that he tried to

Boston had withstood the life with British soldiers before the Boston Massacre in 1770 for two years. The British Army landed on the shores of Boston in October of 1768. The citizens of the city had endured the everyday life of the soldiers as they rose in the morning, trained throughout the day and went back to their tents in the evening. Not only did they see them every day they communicated with them in town when the soldiers came into the town to buy goods and utilized services within the city limits of Boston. A very famous citizen of Boston, Paul Revere, described what he saw as the solider came into the city. Revere said, “They (the British) formed and marched with insolent parade, drums beating, fifes playing and colors flying, up King Street. Each soldier has received 16 rounds of powder and ball.” Troops of the 29th, unable
