Johnston Monument Unveiled
With Appropriate Exercises
stands at “parade rest,” surmounting
a base of Georgia granite. The base
is in the form of a semi-circle rising
in three tiers, which diminish in size
until the huge block of granite, on
which stands the figure, is reached.
From the rear of the monument, two
large arms, resting on concrete, ex
tend outward and forward, being
joined to the base; the arms are hand
somely carved in laurel leaves.
At the front of the stone on which
the statue rests is inscribed the fol
lowing, directly beneath a laurel
wreath:
Joseph E. Johnston
1807-1891
Brigadier General, U. S. A.
General, C. S. A.
Given command of the Confederate
forces at Dalton, in 1963, he directed
the 79 days’ campaign to Atlanta, one
of the most memorable in the annals
of war.
Erected by Bryan M. Thomas chap
ter, United Daughters of the Confed
eracy, Dalton, Georgia, 1912.
History of Monument.
The movement which had its cul
mination in the unveiling today, was
first suggested by the late Col. Tom
linson Fort, of Chattanooga, who, in
a Memorial Day address here several
years ago, lauded General Johnston as
one of the greatest generals the world
has ever seen. In his remarks he de
plored the fact that there was no mon
ument standing in his memory, and
stated that he would deposit $100 in
a Chattanooga trust company to go
to a fund for a Johnston monument,
should such ever be undertaken. At
the time Mrs. W .C. Martin was presi
dent of the local chapter, U. D. C. The
late lamented Mrs. F. E. Shumate,
one of the most patriotic and enthus
iastic members of the chapter, was one
of the first to take the initiative in
the movement, and during her lifetime
worked untiringly for the monument.
The money deposited by Colonel
Fort remained in the trust company
for more than a year before a con
certed effort was made to raise the
fund. In July, 1909, while Mrs. F. W.
Elrod was president of the Daughters
of the Confederacy here, committees
were appointed, and the work was
started in earnest, and to the efforts
of Mrs. Elrod and the various com
mittees the success of the movement
which came after more than a year’s
work is due. The money was raised
by private subscriptions, benefit en
tertainments, etc., by which $2,000
was raised. Then the state legislature
appropriated $2,500 to be available
when a similar amount was raised by
the chapter. The City of Dalton and
Whitfield county each appropriated
$250, which completed the fund.
When the monument was first sug
gested Colonel Fort declared Dalton
to be the logical point for it, for here
it was that General Johnston took
command of the army and re-organ
ized it preparatory to beginning his
masterful retreat to Atlanta. Theie
is yet standing here, on North Ham
ilton street, the two-story frame house
occupied by General Johnston while
the army remained in Dalton.
The monument which was unveiled
here today is a fitting memorial for
he Southern general. It stands 15
feet in height, is of the same width
and is 10 feet from the front to the
rear of the base.
The granite was cut by the South
ern Granite and Marble company, of
this city, and the figure of General
Johnston was designed by Miss Belle
Kinney, of Nashville, Tenn.
