Inscription. The "Cloverdale Reveille" is the oldest weekly newspaper continuously published under the same name in the state of California. Founded in the 1870s, and surviving the ups and downs of frontier journalism, the "Cloverdale Reveille" was adjudicated by the Sonoma County Superior Court. This identifies and validates the newspaper, which allows it to publish legal notices and qualify for United States Postal Service 2nd Class status. The "Cloverdale Reveille" is still publishing under the same name and court order issued long ago.

Erected 2004 by E Clampus Vitus, Yerba Buena Chapter No. 1.
