U. S. GRANT HDQS
Savannah is not very far from Pittsburgh Landing and the Battle of Shiloh. This Civil War marker signifies how General Grant stopped at Cherry Mansion before and after the battle. This is along Main St. just a couple blocks west from the county courthouse.
It is kind of strange to me to see a pile of cannon balls decorated with Christmas lights...weird and eerie.
