For a full story about "The Puritan" statue by Augustus Saint Gaudens, see my blog post "The Chapin Monument" at the link http://nutfieldgenealogy.blogspot.com/2011/02/samuel-chapin-monument-not-so-wordless.html This statue is located just a few blocks from where the NERGC conference was taking place in Springfield, Massachusetts this weekend.
