They are absolutely priceless. Also, the Burlington Free Press had an article on the Granite workers in Barre and the murder of Elia Corti on the front page of section C, the Living section, done by Tim Johnson. I put the exact title of the article in to find it, as I did not find the Free Press site itself very helpful in conducting searches. "Bygone Barre brought to Life" is what you have to put in Google or what have you. and there is a book of interviews done by Mari Tomasi and Roaldus Richmond now being published bythe New England Press, edited by Alfred Rosa and Mark Wanner, "Men Against Granite" - now for sale. The article about the book is right next to the Bygone Barre article. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Toolbar provides one-click access to Hotmail from any Web page FREE download! http://toolbar.msn.click-url.com/go/onm00200413ave/direct/01/
