Palatka

Front (south face) of monument



The front of the monument has three flags - two Confederate national flags and one battle flag - over the inscription:

Although the flag they died to save
floats not o'er any land or sea
throughout eternal years shall wave
the banner of their chivalry.

Below this, on the base, is inscribed:

1861 - Our Confederate Heroes - 1865
