”The Brown Mausoleum, the only mausoleum within the cemetery, is a small, gable-roofed building constructed in approximately 1894 of granite from the local Ten-Mile quarry, which can be identified by its medium grain, white color, characteristic pink feldspar crystals, and small black biotite specks. The mausoleum was likely built by Kain Granite Co., the operators of the Ten-Mile quarry. The steeply pitched roof of the mausoleum is of granite cut in slabs. The window openings originally were set with stained glass units, but have since been infilled with stone.”
