Great Architectural Etchings from 1890

I've had a book published in Boston by Estes and Lauriat, quite possibly a Catholic publication, which was illustrated by wonderful etchings.  I've had to dispose of the book but I scanned some of the etchings, and I hope you enjoy them.  I have always absolutely loved black and white illustrations, pen and ink, and of course etchings, and especially architectural renderings.
The titles of some of them may be innacurate, and I will try to decipher the artist's names, although the publication was very casual about giving the artists credit.
Enjoy them, I sure have.
