The State of Pennsylvania has erected this monument in grateful remembrance of the Officers and Men of the 109th Pennsylvania Veteran Volunteer Infantry who in the time of their country's peril, offered their lives upon this field and many other battlefields to save for the benefit of posterity, a government founded upon the consent of the governed and dedicated to the principles of personal liberty and human freedom.
I am looking for photographs of the 28th Pennsylvannia Infantry and the 59th Ohio Infantry monuments at Chicka mauga. Would you have such pictures? I am compiling a catalog of all the monuments produced in Westerly rhode Island that commemorate the Civil War.
