Carrying the chapel beams

Item

Description

" ...We agreed to change to the timber roof you see today. Mr. Pratt (the architect) took a vacation and drove out West to talk to the engineers of Timber Structures. They worked very fast, and from July 7 to July 28 several carloads of roof beams arrived and were carried across Route 9 on the shoulders of the Scholastics to the site of the building."
