Spear Memorial Sundial (1906)

Spear Memorial Sundial set on a hexagonal granite base ornamented with cherubic figures in relief, was until 1980 a drinking fountain. The painting or clothing of these figures in garish colors has continued to tempt Cornellians since the fountain was dedicated by Armstrong Spear, Class of 1881, in memory of his first wife, Annie F. Spear.
