South Aisle
In the South Aisle, we find a historic stone given in 1925 to a son of Dr. William DuBose who presented it to the University. It came from St. Ethelbert's Tower, a twelfth century Norman structure located near Canterbury, England. It was used for many years as part of the reredos at Canterbury Cathedral.
A fragment from from the original university cornerstone is also located in the wall of the South Aisle. Many years after the Civil War this fragment was returned to the university by the son of Colonel Bradley. Colonel Bradley had been the commander of one of the federal regiments whose troops, without his knowledge, blew up the cornerstone while occupying the domain.
