Stone Civil War obelisk flanked by statues of two Confederate soldiers, one an officer with Van Dyke beard and saber, the other a young private, a boy in a Confederate uniform holding a rifle, with one foot on a book. The monument reads: "Drowns of roses fade. Crowns of thorns endure. Calvalries and crucifixions take deepest hold of humanity. The triumphs of might are transient. They pass and are forgotten. The sufferings of right are graven deepest on the chronical of nations." For more information see Linley, John. Architecture of Middle Georgia: the Oconee Area. Athens, Ga.: University of Georgia Press, c1972, pp. 149-150.
