- Description:
- North of Calhoun, 1930. Statue to the Indian, Sequoyah, located in a small park at the intersection of U.S. Highway 41 and Ga. Highway 225. The Calhoun Woman's Club was responsible for getting the statue erected. The pedestal of rock was constructed by W. Laurens Hillhouse. Adjacent to this statue is an arch built of native rock which was erected to honor the memory of Civil War and World War I soldiers. Mr. Hillhouse built it, too, for the Calhoun Woman's Club. The above were completed ca. 1925.
The photograph was taken by the Calhoun Photo Shoppe which was located in Calhoun, Georgia. - External Identifiers:
