floor extends the whole length of the building from portico to portico, and is crossed by one from side to side, and at their intersection they rise to a heighth of 80 or 100 feet from which is suspended a large chandelier, as well as a smaller one in each arm of the hall. They are panelled and frescoed and all is stone from top to bottom of the building. The halls in the lower story cross each other as in the upper, but they are not more than 18 feet high. The rooms were not opened when I went in. The body of the architect is entombed in one corner of the walls. The photograph can be pasted on to pasteboard for presentation.
