Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ceremonies at the Dedication of the Equestrian Statue of Major-General Anthony Wayne The General Assembly of the Commonwealth made an Appropriation for the erection of an Equestrian statue to Major-General Anthony Wayne, which was approved by Governor Pennypacker, May 11, 1905. The Commission authorized by the Act was appointed June 5, 1905, and named as follows: John P. Nicholson, Richard M. Cadwalder and John Armstrong Herman. A meeting of the Commission was held July 15, 1905, for organization and discussion of plans. It was agreed to select a competent engineer to prepare the proper specification for a competition and to erect an Equestrian statue of Major-General Anthony Wayne, in pursuance of the act. At a meeting, July 22, 1905, Lieut.-Colonel E. B. Cope was selected as the engineer, and Colonel Nicholson to act as chairman. On October 14, 1905, at Valley Forge, Penna., a location for the statue was selected in the presence of the Valley Forge Park Commission and with their approval on the outer line of entrenchments, and south of the line held by the Pennsylvania troops, and to invite a competition of sculptors at Harrisburg. Penna., April 2, 1906. April 2, 1906, the Commission assembled with the engineer, and in the presence of Governor Pennypacker, made an inspection of twelve models submitted by sculptors. June 22, 1906, the Commission, with the presence of Governor Pennypacker, resolved that six of the sculptors who had exhibited at Harrisburg April 2, 1906, be requested to submit for a further examination photographs and drawings of the models exhibited April 2, 1906.
