Seymour P. Houston

Seymour P. Houston
1848-May 17, 1873
This is an example of an earlier repair using metal straps to hold the stone together.
Holes were drilled and the metal straps were attached to both sides of the stone.
Rather than risking further damage to the stone by removing the straps, it was decided to leave the straps intact and to keep an eye on it.
