STATE OF GEORGIA
[stars circling the Georgia Seal]

(Proper Right - Base):
Not for fame or reward
Not for place or for rank
Not lured by ambition
Or goaded by necessity
But in simple obedience
To duty as they understood it
These men suffered all,
Sacrificed all,
Dared all and died

(Proper Left - Base): Dedicated by the Gen. William J. Hardee Camp #1397, Sons of Confederate Veterans and Patriotic citizens who generously contributed. Erected in 2012 during the Sequicentennial [sic] of the War Between the States.
