A Granite Block
You might be wondering what exactly the workers uncovered at the monument. To put it simply: a granite block! Well, that doesn’t sound very exciting. You will need to hold your excitement for a little while longer as the real treasure is about to be revealed. The granite block that workers spotted was just the cornerstone that was built at the time the monument was constructed. There was much more to be revealed than just what the workers were seeing.

Entry of Humphries
The executive director of the Mount Vernon Conservancy became quite excited when he learned that the granite block had been found. Lance Humphries’ Conservancy monitors the maintenance and care of all the monuments and landmark locations of the region. The excitement that Lance felt could clearly be seen in his statement given to the area’s WBAL. He said that the records showed that there was a block, but the papers didn’t reveal its exact location. Now that they had finally traced it, it was surely going to be a very exciting reveal.
