The ships included the HMS ''Jersey'', the ''Scorpion'', the ''Hope'', the ''Falmouth'', the ''Stromboli'', ''Hunter'', and others.〔Cray, "Commemorating the Prison Ship Dead", pp.568–9〕〔Wilson, James Grant. (''The memorial History of the City of New-York, From its First Settlement to the Year 1892'' ), vol. IV New York:New-York History Company, 1893, pp.8–9. Accessed: January 22, 2012〕 Their remains were first gathered and interred in 1808. In 1867 landscape architects Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux, designers of Central Park and Prospect Park, were engaged to prepare a new design for Washington Park as well as a new crypt for the remains of the prison ship martyrs.〔("Fort Greene Park: Prison Ship Martyrs Monument: History" ) on the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation website〕 In 1873, after urban growth hemmed in that site near the Brooklyn Navy Yard, the remains were moved and re-interred in a crypt beneath a small monument. Funds were raised for a larger monument, which was designed by noted architect Stanford White. Constructed of granite, its single Doric column in height sits over the crypt at the top of a -wide 33 step staircase. At the top of the column is an eight-ton bronze brazier, a funeral urn, by sculptor Adolf Weinman. President-elect William Howard Taft delivered the principal address when the monument was dedicated in 1908. ==Context== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Prison Ship Martyrs' Monument」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
