Barnwell County Confederate Monument
1900
Our Confederate Dead
(West Face)
Who throughout a long
and bloody struggle dis-
played a heroism and de-
votion to duty unsurpass-
ed. If ever equaled in the
annuals of war.
(South face)
Who wrung from the great
commander of the opposing
armies the humiliating
confession that they could
be overcome only by attri-
tion. And in the deadly con-
teat in which they engaged
their spirits were never
broken. Their courage never
quailed. Their convictions
never deserted. And their
manhood was never surrendered
(North Face)
Erected by the woman
of Barnwell to the mem
ory of their countrymen
who fell in the war for
the rights of the states.
And who died to maintain
the principal that govern-
ments derive their just
powers from the consent
of the governed.
Marker is at the intersection of Dunbarton Boulevard (South Carolina Route 64) and Main Street (South Carolina Route 70), in the median on Dunbarton Boulevard.
