A Deaerved Monument to the Patriotism
of the Ladies Of Augusta.

Mr.. EDITOR Every one will rejoice that
the prayers and patriotism and efforts and
sacrifices of the ladies of Augusta during
the war for the Union are to be worthily and
lastingly COMMUNICATED by the imposing
monument about to be erected on the State
and Grove street mall. The monument is to
be surrounded by the figure of a lady and the
whole design is chaste, unique and
tasteful The delicacy and gallantry
and unselfishness of the men of Augusta in
thus honoring the deeds of the women in the
dark days of the war, are worthy of all
praise. 1t will beyond doubt bear fruit
promptly in a movement on the part OF the
ladies of Augusta to erect a monument to the
soldiers who on battle field and in Iazar
house offered up their lives for the same
great cause to which the ladies of Augusta
consecrated their patriotic efforts.
