"The Confederate Soldiers were our kinfolk and our heroes.  We testify to the country our enduring fidelity to their memory.  We commemorate their valor and devotion.  There were some things that were not surrendered at Appomattox.  We did not surrender our rights and history, nor was it one of the conditions of surrender that unfriendly lips should be suffered to tell the story of that war or that unfriendly hands should write the epitaths of the Confederate dead.  We have a right to teach our children the true history of that war, the causes that led up to it and the principles involved."              
- Senator Edward Ward Carmack, 1903.
