Charge to the Sons
of Confederate Veterans:
"To you, Sons of Confederate Veterans, we submit
the vindication of the Cause for which we fought; to your strength will be
given the defense of the Confederate soldier's good name, the guardianship
of his history, the emulation of his virtues, the
perpetuation of those principles he loved and which made him glorious and
which you also cherish. Remember, it is your duty to see that the true
history of the South is presented to future generations."
- Lt. General Stephen
Dill Lee, Commander General, United Confederate Veterans, New Orleans,
Louisiana, 1906
