The inscription on the left side of the center Memorial wall was written by Tom Smith and states: "On January 11, 1861 the State of Alabama seceded from the Union and joined the Confederate State of America. On April 15, 1861 the United States declared war on the Confederacy. The citizens of Calhoun County were among the first in Alabama to respond to the invasion of our sovereign soil. Over 4,000 of Calhoun County's best and finest men left to defend the safety of their families, their homes and the independence of our Nation, the Confederate States of America. Four years later over 2000 lay slain and less then half survived to return home. Calhoun County lost more men in the War for Southern Independence then Alabama's total combined war dead of the Korean and Vietnam Wars. On this Memorial are listed the names of our Ancestors that time has not Erased."
