1. The box is a piece of recreated history. The copper capsule was created based on construction designs that were recently rediscovered, according to David Eide, senior construction manager at Mayo Clinic. Using the designs, Mayo Clinic was able to recreate an replica of the original time capsule, which is assumed to still exist behind the original 1938 cornerstone, which was uncovered earlier this year as part of renovation efforts.

Context: In 1864, William Worrall Mayo, M.D., settled his family and opened a medical practice in Rochester, Minn. Dr. Mayo was dedicated to serving patients and advancing medical science through education and research. He and his wife, Louise, passed their pioneering spirit to their sons, William and Charles, who entered medicine in the 1880s and transformed the family practice into Mayo Clinic, a global center of hope and healing.
