COME STATE MONUMENTS AT ANDERSONVILLE, GA. 
1. Rhode Island; 2. Pennsylvania; 3. Massachusetts; 4. Ohio; 5. New Jersey; 6. Michigan. 
Michigan, Massachusetts and Maine have erected mon- 
uments, and New York, Illinois, Iowa, and other states, 
have substantial memorials under way. 
The monuments of Ohio, Massachusetts, Rhode Isl- 
and and Michigan stand on the prison grounds, and 
those of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Maine in the 
National Cemetery. 
The Pennsylvania memorial, the most elaborate of 
the structures, is in the form of an open court, sur- 
mounted by a bronze statue. The interior is of marble. 
The Michigan monument is a simple, massive design 
embodying an original treatment of the sarcophagus 
form of memorial. A figure typifying Michigan’s 
grief at the loss of her sons, standing in front of the 
die, holds a palm branch in one hand, and places a 
laurel wreath upon the stone with the other. 
Ohio is represented by a plain spire monument of 
Barre granite 46 feet high, and New Jersey bv a shaft 
25 feet high, with a conventional surmounting statue 
of a soldier at parade rest.
