    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[This Library was built as a Civil War Memorial, town museum and library, containing a room with a memorial vestibule which was designed to display war relics. Its architects, Rotch & Tilden, were renowned for their designs of prominent public buildings, and designed mansions, churches and academic halls across New England. The exterior is decorated with tablets made out of Tennessee marble on the front face of the building, which list the names of 36 men from Bridgewater who were killed between 1861 and 1865. Located in the town centre, the buildng still functions as a community hub and working library.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Dedicated on 30 May 1905, this monument depicts a soldier at parade rest. After repeated calls for a monument to Essex's Union troops, the O.H.P. Sargent Post of the Women's Relief Corps conducted a successful campaign to fund its creation and erection. While the statue's plinth was designed by Ames & Snow of Lynn, the sculpture was likely provided by the Smith Granite Company, of Westerly, Rhode Island, a company who specialized in mass-producing infantrymen statues of this type.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The Weeping Lion statue was originally installed on the second floor of Colby College Memorial Hall, situated on the old campus. The marble statue, and its accompanying plaque, is dedicated to those students and graduates from Colby College who served and died for the Union. The statue is a replica of the Lion of Lucerne, located in Switzerland, which was designed by Bertel Thorvaldsen and dedicated to the Swiss Guard who were massacred in 1792 during the French Revolution. The erection of the college statue in Colby Memorial Hall was overseen and funded by Professor Charles E. Hamlin, and the monument was designed and created by Marin Millmore of Boston. It was dedicated during the commencement of 1871. However, the college campus was moved during the 20th century, and the statue was later moved in 1962 before the destruction of the old campus in 1966. It can now be found in the Miller Library on Mayflower Hill.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The first monument to a common soldier known to have been sculpted by a woman, "The Volunteer' was later used to cast multiple copies across Massachusetts and Mississippi. Kitson's monument attempted to restore individuality to the soldier by diverging from more conventional representations of the soldier as at parade rest.  Instead, the monument is striking in its life-like representation of the Union soldier: his coat is unbuttoned, trousers tucked into his boots and hand in his pocket.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The Volunteer is a copy of Kitson's sculpture in Newport, but unlike the original, this figure has a mustache and looks slightly older. It is possible that the committee wanted their statue to be unique, whilst basing a design on an existing monument would have been more cost-effective. It was a gift from George Washington Gay and his wife Eunice Lyon Gay. George H. Gay, was mortally wounded at the Battle of Dallas in Georgia on May 25, having enlisted with the 33rd Massachusetts Infantry when he was 18 and a student. The monument is dedicated to George H. Day and all of Sharon's "sons who fell in the Great Civil War 1861-1865'. The left panel of the Sharon Soldier's monument bears a plaque dedicated to of Deborah Sampson Gannett, the grandmother of G.W. Gay, who was also from Sharon and disguised herself as a man in order to serve in the Revolutionary War.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Prominently located on Veteran Memorial Green, near an elementary school, library and town common, this monument was designed by the well-known female sculptor Theo Alice Ruggles Kitson, who created a number of monuments to Union and Confederate troops throughout the early twentieth century. The monument is unusual, depicting a fallen standard-bearer handing a shattered Union flat to a sergeant who raises it up in his right hand, a rifle in his left. The monument was recently refurbished, and an inscription, funded in part by the League of Women Voters, was added to acknowledge Kitson's role in the monument's creation.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Locally referred to as the "Minuteman' this monument is based on Theo Alice Ruggles Kitson's Newburyport statue of "The Volunteer'. The North Andover figure however maintains a different pose to its predecessor, as he appears to be stepping forward with his rifle ready in his arms, rather than casually slung over one shoulder. The monument's creation was repeatedly postponed, until 1912 when it was decided that it should be used to commemorate soldiers from North Andover who fought in the Civil War and other wars. The monument bears no inscription except for that of Kitson's name and the Gorham Co. founder's mark. ]]></dcterms:description>
