Charge to Sons of Confedrate Veterans
"To you, Sons of Confederate Veterans, we will commit the vindication of the cause for which we fought. To your strength will be given the defense of the Confederate soldier's good name, the guardianship of his history, the emulation of his virtues, the perpetuation of those principles which he loved and which you love also, and those ideals which made him glorious and which you also cherish."
Lt. General Stephen Dill Lee
Commander General,
United Confederate Veterans
New Orleans, Louisiana, April 25, 1906.
"Being the only camp in our area, we strive to protect the truth of our southern heritage, that our ancestors so proudly represented. We preserve, teach, and illustrate the history of the area in which the invincibles fought for, Rusk county and northern Cherokee county, in a manner that would best honor there sacrifices and our nations pride today."
