Arsenal Building at arpers Ferry

Exc~teme,nt is running high at
H+arpers Ferry National Monu-

ion of Edward Larrabee, arCheoi
ogist and his assi.~tant William
Hershey, the huge stone foundat-
ions of two Federal Arsenal build
ings on lower Shenandoah Street
are now lying exposed in deeply
dug trenche~ like the bone-struc-
ture of a long buried ~iant.
An industrial giant indeed in
its day, the United States Armory
Arsenal and Hall Rifle Works at

7oundties producing i,n 1850 abou, t
12,000 arms. Exposure of t,he long
buried foundations is dz'ama~tic
~roof of the size and importance
~f the Federal holdings at Har-
vers Ferry t,hat were captured by
lo'hn Brown and his handful of
r~aiders in 1859.
Besides the be'arded arc~heolo-
Fist and his adm~inistrative assis,t
~n,t, ~here are two field and ar-
:ti~aet assistants a0nd+~three labor-
ors. In two weeks of work they
, opened by hand 100 feet of 5-foot
~ide trenches, ranging from 2 to
10 feet deep. Trenches were laid
~o cross-section a mound left a-
long the south side of the Arsenal
Yard ~hen valueless poSt-Civil
