1. Description of Monument.
A young, uniformed Confederate soldier stands, his proper left hand on the barrel of his musket by his side, the butt resting by his foot. He has a bedroll slung over his proper left shoulder, with a cartridge box on his proper right hip and a bayonet and canteen on his proper left hip. The soldier is mounted upon a tall, multitiered base with a rough-edged upper shaft, and rough-edged, stepped bottom tiers. On the lower front of the base is a relief a Confederate battle flag crossed with the third national flag of the Confederacy. The base also contains bronze plaques on the rear and on each of the two sides, which lists names of battles, companies, and the dead of Warren County.

It cost $2,900, and funds were raised through public subscription and an appropriation from Warren County. Fundraising began in January, 1909. The monument was erected under the auspices of the Warren Rifles Chapter, United Daughters of the Confederacy, assisted by the Ladies' Warren Memorial Association, the Wm. Richardson Camp of United Confederate Veterans, and the Warren Blues Camp of Sons of Confederate Veterans.
