In Memory Of

Privates Gregg, William Max, W. H. Kilpatrick and other soldiers who met death in this region while serving under General R. S. MacKenzie, Fourth U.S. Cavalry, 1871-1872 and 1874-1875. With no hope of honor if victorious; no dream of mercy if they fell; and the certainty of death by torture if taken alive; they fought the savage Comanche and cleared the plains for the white men.
