This monument is erected
by the Grand Army of the Republic
Women's Relief Corps, Sons of Veterans
and Other Patriotic Citizens of Bond County
which sent 1200 men, the bravest of the brave
many of whom never returned
but gave their lives for the
land they loved
VICKSBURG
[West Face]
From scattered lands,
From different states and counties,
They came together in the Great Struggle
United in death, they have left for us
a United country.
How great the price, yet what true patriot
can say the price was too great?
