Set in Stone

More than two years after Staley B. Keith's death, and less than two weeks after his daughter, Alderman Alexis Keith, complained at a Common Council meeting that nothing had been done to fulfill Mayor William Hallenbeck's promise to designate the place where Carroll, Prospect, and Short streets converge with Harry Howard Avenue as "Staley B. Keith Circle," a stone appeared yesterday in the little grassy triangle.

It is expected that a bronze plaque commemorating Keith will be affixed to the stone.
