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. Records Preserved.
