The Little Fork Rangers Monument
1861.
Affectionately dedicated to
The Little Fork Rangers
{Co. D, 4. Va. Cavalry.}
For heroic deeds, and
Patriotic devotion.
1865.
Firm as the firmest where duty led,
They hurried without falter;
Bold as the boldest they fought and bled,
The battled wore on, but the fields were red,
And the blood of their fresh young hearts was shed,
On their Country’s hallowed altar.
—Ryan
