DescriptionEN English Description The Soldier’s Monument honoring Williams students and alumni who fought during the US Civil War is of note as it is one of the earliest memorials to veterans and the war dead still extant on college and university grounds, as most such monuments were not commissioned until the early twentieth century. This was commissioned by the Society of Alumni of Williams College and dedicated in 1868. The monument was temporarily taken down in 1925 and was rededicated to the residents of Williamstown in 1929. It originally had a gothic pedestal but is now mounted on a more modern geometric form.

NOV 15, 1865 TO RESCUE HIS NAME FROM THE STIGMA ATTACHED TO IT BY EMBITTERED PREJUDICE THIS SHAFT IS ERECTED BY THE GEORGIA DIVISION UNITED DAUGHTERS OF THE CONFEDERACY Second/South side: Discharging his duty with such humanity as the harsh circumstances of the times and the policy of the foe permitted, Captain Wirz became at last the victim of a misdirected popular clamor. He was arrested in time of peace, while under the protection of a parole, tried by a military commission of a service to which he did not belong, and condemned to ignominious death on charges of excessive cruelty to federal prisoners. He indignantly spurned a pardon proffered on condition that he would incriminate President Davis and thus exonerate himself from charges of which both were innocent. Third/West side: It is hard on our men held in southern prisons not to exchange them, but it is humanity of those left in the ranks to fight our battles. At this particular time, to release all rebel prisoners north would insure Sherman's defeat and would compromise our safety here. Ulysses S. Grant August 18, 1864." Fourth/North side: When time shall have softened passion and prejudice, when reason shall have stripped the mask from misrepresentation, then justice, holding evenly her scales, will require much of past censure and praise to change places.

The monument is unusual, depicting a fallen standard-bearer handing a shattered Union flat to a sergeant who raises it up in his right hand, a rifle in his left. The monument was recently refurbished, and an inscription, funded in part by the League of Women Voters, was added to acknowledge Kitson's role in the monument's creation.
