hoard of the Lee Monument Association
held meeting There were present:
Governor Lee. Colonel Morton Marye,
Colonel Archer Anderson and Colonel
4. W Harman.
A letter was received from Mrs Sarah
Randolph. who is now in Baltimore, in
Which she stated that she approved OF
the inscrintiOn to be inscribed on the
plaque. That inscription is simply the
word LEE.
Al one time IL was the intention TO
put long inscriptions on the monument,
but the good sober sense Of all persons
deemed # well that the simple word LIE
would speak more volumes TO future
visitors 10 that monument Than all the
inscriptions which the English language
could allow.
The cartouohe In front and rear Is
fourteen feet high. The drawings for
the same were sent here sometime ago.
They were made by the assistant OF the
artist Mercie. They were sent 10 the

John A. Elder, of this city, which is to
be the monument TO the soldier dead in

their approval.
