A memorial to Confederate soldiers
The United Daughters of the Confederacy helped promulgate the "Lost Cause" ideology through the construction of numerous memorials, such as this one in Tennessee.
The inscription on the memorial reads: "To the memory of the Confederate soldiers who fell in the assault on Fort Sanders November 29, 1863. Nor wreck, nor change, nor winter's blight / Nor time's remorseless doom/ Shall dim one ray of glory's light/ that gilds your glorious tomb. Erected by Knoxville chapter no. 89. United Daughters of the Confederacy. Nov. 29, 1914."
