"In Memory
of the
Patriotism and Valor
of the
Soldiers and Sailors of Vigo County
in the
War of 1861 - - 1865
“On Fame’s eternal camping ground
their silent tents are spread
and Glory guards with solemn round
the Bivouac of the Dead.”
Soldiers rest thy warfare o’er,
sleep the sleep that knows no breaking.
Dream of battle fields no more,
Days of danger - nights of waking.
Erected by the Board
of
Commissioners of Vigo County
and the
Vigo County
Monumental Association
A. D. 1909."
