 o you, Sons of Confederate Veterans, we submit 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 he
loved and 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."
