(Front):
To the
Unknown and Unrecorded
Dead.
(Left Side):
Erected. A.D. 1879. By the people of the South.
To the 829 unknown Confederate dead
who lie beneath this mound.
In grateful remembrance of their heroic virtues.
And that their example of unstinted devotion
to duty and country may never be forgotten.

(Back):
"On fame's eternal camping ground
Their silent tents are spread;
While glory guards with solemn round
This bivouac of the dead."

(Right Side):
Who they were none know
What they were all know
