Inscription. 1906-1958
We honor a man - a mountain tall
An answer to our Nation's call.
A hero's name to be inscrolled
In burnished letters set in cold.
A man to have - A man to hold
A man from which to form a mold
Sleep on - Brave Scion of the Sea
Whilst we salute - thy deeds and thee

Gift of
Victor J. McCormick
