  • Mount Rushmore: a Tomb for Dead Ideas of American Greatness in June of 1927, Albert Burnley Bibb, Professor of Architecture at George Washington
    Caleb Rollins 1 Mount Rushmore: A Tomb for Dead Ideas of American Greatness In June of 1927, Albert Burnley Bibb, professor of architecture at George Washington University remarked in a plan for The National Church and Shrine of America, “[T]hrough all the long story of man’s mediaeval endeavor, the people have labored at times in bonds of more or less common faith and purpose building great temples of worship to the Lords of their Destiny, great tombs for their noble dead.”1 Bibb and his colleague Charles Mason Remey were advocating for the construction of a national place for American civil religion in Washington, D.C. that would include a place for worship and tombs to bury the great dead of the nation. Perhaps these two gentleman knew that over 1,500 miles away in the Black Hills of South Dakota, a group of intrepid Americans had just begun to make progress on their own construction of a shrine of America, Mount Rushmore. These Americans had gathered together behind a common purpose of building a symbol to the greatness of America, and were essentially participating in the human tradition of construction that Bibb presented. However, it is doubtful that the planners of this memorial knew that their sculpture would become not just a shrine for America, but also like the proposed National Church and Shrine a tomb – a tomb for the specific definitions of American greatness espoused by the crafters of Mt. Rushmore. In 1924 a small group of men initiated the development of the memorial of Mount Rushmore and would not finish this project until October of 1941.

  • Saint John's University, Collegeville, Minnesota: a Sketch of Its History, by Alexius Hof
    Saint John's University, Collegeville, Minnesota: A Sketch of Its History, by Alexius Hof... Page 1 of 83 Saint John's University Archives > Saint John's University, Collegeville, Minnesota: A Sketch of Its History, by Alexius Hoffmann, OSB > Saint John's University, Collegeville, Minnesota: A Sketch of Its History, by Alexius Hoffmann, OSB Saint John's University, Collegeville, Minnesota: A Sketch of Its History, by Alexius Hoffmann, OSB PREFACE St. John's University, Collegeville, Minnesota: A Sketch of Its History by Alexius Hoffmann, OSB / published by Record Press, Collegeville, Minnesota, 1907. The following pages pretend to be no more than a sketch, in the form of annals, of the history of Saint John’s. As such it is merely a compilation of events that will serve as working material for the future historian. Most of the information was drawn from the annual catalogues the first of which was published in 1870; from the files of newspapers, such as Der Wanderer, of St. Paul, and the St. Cloud Daily Times; from the Saint John’s University Record, private diaries and personal recollections. If many of the happenings chronicled do not rise to the dignity of historical events, the writer’s excuse is that he has addressed himself primarily to the alumni of the institution, to whom the daily doings of college life are as interesting as the larger facts of history. For this reason too the forms of annals was chosen as a dress for the narrative. CHAPTER I Beginnings – The Saint Cloud Priory – Transfers – Final Location – 1856-1867 When, about the middle of last century, that part of central Minnesota lying west of the Mississippi was thrown open for settlement, such a stream of settlers poured in that in a short time the face of the primitive wilderness was changed.

    Episode 2 – “Deep Water” (In front of the Grand Central Hotel, men are felling a tree using ropes to guide it.) Lumberjack: Hold it, now keep attention on it boys! That’s it! (EB emerges from the hotel pushing a wheelbarrow full of laundry – he’s heading for Mr. Wu’s. We see Tim Driscoll’s dog come running after him. When EB gets to the pig sty, we see Mr. Wu raking the mud around the pen and hear the pigs squealing – he watches EB approach.) E.B.: “Washee” (Holding up some of the linens) Mr. Wu: “Washee” (EB reveals the body of Tim Driscoll in the cart under the linens.) EB: “Eat-ee” (Camera pans to the pigs, EB points to the barking dog) His doggy, them “eat-ee” too, or, “eat-ee” him yourself, you leering heathen. (Smiles, laughs and leaves.) --- (Up in Al’s bedroom, he and Trixie are sleeping – Al sits up, Trixie remains asleep. We hear the chattering of the lumberjacks outside, Al gets up and – yup, pisses in his chamber pot. He looks out the window and sees the men fell the tree. He spots EB approaching. Al, finished pissing, picks up the gun Trixie left on his bedside table – Trixie opens her eyes.) Al: Is this for me? Trixie:Brought it for you.
