Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Proceedings of the Dedication of the Soldiers' Monument, Dover, Massachusetts, June 18, 1910: To Which Has Been Added the Exercises of Dedication of the New Grammar School House, November 12, 1910; The Unveiling of Headstones to the Memory of Revolutionary Soldiers, May 10, 1911; The Dedication of the Tablet Erected in Memory of the Indians, Janua The first agitation for the erection of a soldiers' monument goes back to a time soon after the close of the Civil War. As early as 1875 the question was discussed and strongly advocated by Ansel K. Tisdale, a Dover veteran of the Civil War. The subject was kept alive through the years by Mr. Tisdale and later had the active support of George L. Howe, Jedediah W. Higgins, and other residents. Some years ago a nucleus for the erection of a soldiers' monument was formed by setting aside a part of the annual appropriation made by the town for the observance of Memorial Day. The question of the erection of a monument took definite shape in 1909, when Irving Colburn, Lewis B. Paine, and J. Grant Forbes were appointed a Soldiers' Monument Committee. The monument fund having steadily grown under the fostering care of those especially interested in the project, the town voted at the annual March meeting in 1910 to add a sum sufficient to erect a dignified monument, the whole matter being put in charge of the standing committee. Messrs. Richardson, Barott & Richardson were selected as architects. Their design of a monument in honor of all the soldiers who had represented Dover in the wars of the country was accepted by the town, and the contract for building the monument was awarded by the Committee to the Holt-Fairchild Company of Boston. It was decided to erect the monument on the "Old Training Field," which was first used for military purposes as early as the middle of the 18th century. Here the soldiers in the last French and Indian War and the Revolution used to assemble, and here the state militia held training days until about 1850. The monument is placed at the east end of the Training Field, near the junction of Dedham and Centre Streets, and is in full view of all who come into town from the direction of Needham or Dedham. It stands on a granite foundation twelve feet eight inches square. The monument comprises a circular shaft, built of Westerly granite, three feet two inches in diameter and fourteen feet high.
