Surrounded by the graves of 68 Confederate soldiers, the Confederate Monument to the American Civil War resides in the hills above the state’s capitol in Kentucky. The monument was erected in 1892 by the Daughters of the Confederacy. The monument’s primary inscription reads;
“Our Confederate Dead
1861–1865
They sleep—what need to question now
if they were right or wrong:
They know ere this whose cause was
just in God the Father’s sight
They wield no warlike weapons now
return no foeman’s thrust
Who but a coward would revile
an honored soldier’s dust.”
