Holmes County honored its soldiers of 1861—1865 and the members of Holmes County Camp No 398 U.C.V. for their patriotism and heroism, commending their example to future generations. Their deeds were praised as proud deeds that would remain, their names as dear names without stain, and the glories they won as glories that would not wane. In legend and lay, these heroes in gray were said to live forever again, and the men who wore the gray were declared right, with right said never to die. Honor to heroes was joined with glory to God.
