THE MARYLAND REVOLUTIONARY MONUMENT.
Mount Royal Plaza, Baltimore, erected to all Marylanders who aided the cause of
freedom in the Revolutionary War. The monument is 60 feet, 6 inches in height,
the shaft is of Baltimore County Granite and surmounted by a statue of the Goddess of
Liberty. The monument was erected through the efforts of the Maryland Society of
the Sons of the American Revolution. The State and Baltimore City each contributed,
but the attempt to obtain an appropriation from Congress failed, owing to the opposition
of two successive speakers of the House. The unveiling took place on October 19, 1901.
