The decorations are affixed to the wall with a mixture of white lead and Venetian varnish.

The decoration on the north wall represents Reunion, and Progress in the arts and sciences. The decorations in the Lincoln Me- morial typify in allegory the principles evident in the life of Abraham Lincoln. There are six groups in a grove, each group hav...ing for a background cypress trees, the emblem of Eternity. The decoration above the Gettys- burg Address typifies, in the central group. Freedom and Liberty. The Angel of Truth is giving Freedom and Liberty to the slave. The shackles of [259] bondage are falling from the arms and feet. They are guarded by two sibyls.
