BENEATH THIS STONE

REPOSE THE BONES OF TWO THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN UNKNOWN SOLDIERS

GATHERED AFTER THE WAR.

FROM THE FIELDS OF BULL RUN. AND THE ROUT TO THE RAPPAHANNOCK.

THEIR REMAINS COULD NOT BE IDENTIFIED. BUT THEIR NAMES AND DEATHS ARE

RECORDED IN THE ARCHIVES OF THEIR COUNTRY: AND TIS GRATEFUL CITIZENS

HONOR THEM AS OF THEIR NOBLE ARMY OF MARTYRS. MAY THEY REST IN PEACE.

SEPTEMBER. A.D. 1866.
