Inscription.
Front (East Side) In memory of the
Confederate
Soldiers
of
Jackson County Florida North Side We care not whence they came,
Dear in their lifeless clay!
Whether unknown, or known to fame,
Their cause and country
Still the same-
They died - and wore the gray West Side In God We Trust South Side Of the warriors tried and true,
who bore the flag of our
peoples trust,
and fell in a cause, though lost,
still just,
and died for me and you.

Erected 1881.
