Funded by Gurdon Bill, a wealthy local resident who later became President of the Springfield & New London Railroad Company, the memorial was then gifted to the Wilcox Post 16 of the G. A. R. The Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument, which was created at the cost of $10,000, was erected in Springfield's Court Square and dedicated on September 29, 1885; contemporaneous reports affirm that over 1200 men were involved in the dedicatory procession. The monument's bronze tablets include an excerpt from Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, and honour the 2,485 Springfield soldiers who fought in the Civil War as well as all those who died for the Union cause. The monument was designed by M. H. Mosman, as stated on its west-side tablet, however the statue cast was provided by the Ames Foundry in Chicopee; it's likeness can be seen in several other Massachusetts memorials.

Made of Hallowell granite and 15 feet in length, the Sphinx, as in Egyptian mythology, appears as a reclining lion with woman's head, but is here presented with the additional features of a U.S. military medallion and a bald eagle on the headdress, thus representing the future of shared African and American culture envisaged by Bigelow. It commemorates all those who fell in the Civil War, and is noticeable for the unusually emancipatory tone of its inscription, which reads: "American Union Preserved; African Slavery Destroyed; By the Uprising of a Great People; By the Blood of Fallen Heroes'. While no official dedication is recorded, the monument had been placed within the cemetery by September 1871; its enigmatic nature is captured in Charlotte Fiske Bates's 1879 poem 'The Sphinx at Mount Auburn'.
