As time passed, the older members of the unit decided that it was time to reorganize into “The Old Guard Battalion” of the Gate City Guard. These members, numbering 140 and mostly Confederate veterans, were now too old for militia service. The younger members remained named as “The Gate City Guard” and were subject to state service similar to today’s Georgia National Guard. In 1909, Col. Burke conceived the idea of erecting a monument in Atlanta that would commemorate the earlier peace missions by the organization. A committee was formed, funds were raised, and an impressive and emotive memorial dedi cation took place on Oct. 10,1911 before a crowd of approximately 75,000 people. facebook Follow us on www.facebook.com/TheBaldwinBulletin WIL PETTY wil@bbnews.today The Baldwin County Board of Education voted to approve a tax abatement for Phosphorus Cyber Security Inc. during its meeting, Tuesday, Aug. 8.
