Oregon Monument Works Is a
Strong Local Institution
I
The Oregon Monument Work«,
located at Fourth anti Main streets,
Hillsboro, is one of the largest
works of the kind in Oregon. Here
a large stock of Granite or Marble,
both in the rough and the finished
product, is to be found. Some of
the massive pieces of granite in
the rough measure 10 feet in
legnth, -I feet in width, and weigh
several tons. These are usually
made up into large monuments or
broken into small jobs for distri­
bution throughout the state.
The company uses "Rock of
Ages" granite from Vermont, Ore­
gon granite from Ashland, and
also imports considerable stock
front Scotland and Sweden.
The Oregon Monument Works
was established in Hillsboro about
12 years ago, and at this time is
under the management of H. H.
Stannard, a Hillsboro resident for
five years, and formerly connected
with the business under the man­
agement of the late M. N. Lewis.
Mr. Stannard camp from the mid­
dle west, where he operated a

had over 20 years of experience in
the monument business, and is on

of granite and marble, and many
of the finest monuments in the va­
rious cemeteries testify as to his
skill. Some of the memorials re­
cently erected in the local ceme­
tery were for J. M. Goar, Mrs.
W. F. Boley, G. W. Gowin. Louis
F. Emmott, A. A. Morrill, and
others too numerous to mention.
The Oregon Monument Works
has a branch stock in Newberg,
and does considerable business
there and in the surrounding ter­
ritory. At the present time the
company has on their books orders
for jobs going to Salem. Portland,
