Brick_Wood_Stone_Land_Water_Measurement Jefferson, only briefly mentioning the [cornerstone laying ceremony for the first pavilion] in passing in his correspondence, was more concerned in fact with guaranteeing the quick arrival of a Lynchburg bricklayer so that he could commence laying the brick walls of the pavilion while the Virginia weather was still relatively hospitable. See TJ to David Knight, 5 October 1817, DLC:TJ. Knight contracted with TJ to “Work faithfully, upon the Central College at the rate of five Dollars per Day & his Diet found,” plus traveling expenses (David Knight’s Agreement for Bricklaying, 11 October 1817, in ViU:PP). http://geneaknowhow.net/in/beroepen/luyken/metselaar.html

See TJ to Benjamin H. Latrobe, 16 July 1817, DLC:TJ, and TJ to John Hartwell Cocke, 19 July 1817, ViU:JHC; see also Van Horne, Correspndence and Miscellaneous Papers of Benjamin Henry Latrobe, 3:907-10. brick yard Special Collections Library, UVA, MSS4527 large spring first pavilion brick yard The process of brickmaking began in full force in the middle of June 1818 as the seasonal weather permitted in order to commence laying the bricks for the first pavilion and those that followed. Larkin notes that during this period in American history, “few used brick and stone except for German settlers and their descendants” (The Reshaping of Everyday Life, 107).
