Monument Erasure
“It was not for power, nor for riches, nor for ambition's sake, but for a great governmental principle of right, which was rooted and grounded in their faith and sanctioned by their judgments. Without faltering or wavering our martyred dead stood by this principle with their lives, and while the great guns of war shook to its center this now peaceful and prosperous land; while men were slain by tens of thousands, and hearts were stricken, and homes were darkened; while the groans of the dying and the wails of those bereft burdened the very air from Maryland to the Rio Grande, inspired by their example, those who survived stood to the last by the teachings of Calhoun and Davis and those who held the same political faith.”
