Charge to the Sons of
Confederate Veterans
"To you, Sons of Confederate Veterans, we
will commit 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
which he loved and which you love also, and those ideals 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, April 25, 1906.
