Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Marble Border of Western New England, Vol. 1: Its Geology and Marble Development in the Present Century Middlebury Register; an answer subsequently appeared, to which a brief rejoinder, first read to the Society, was also published. In the meantime the society had been struck with the character and extent of the investigation which had thus incidentally been opened to it. Whatever the mechanical facts might have been it was evident that their obscurity had been but little disturbed 3 that while art in, marble had struggled along with some beneficent gleams of usefulness from one generation or people to another, from one era into another, with gleams of admiration public and private upon it, art in history which rehabilitates the elements of social progress in man, if possible with spirit refined, was indifferent to it. The more comprehensive and special the modern book consulted the deeper the shade that obscured its inadequacy. The more intelligent the general student whom a correspondent might consult, the more startling his confession that the subject was quite new to him, and except in the case of one most incisive and accurate of investigators in New England, with the aid accessible to them it seemed likely to remain so. His research had elasticity enough to look for the stream if its fountain head were hidden, and trace it to its origin.
