In Honor of the Confederate Veterans Who settled Comanche County
Dear to our hearts must it be evermore.
The jacket of gray our loved soldiers wore.
Can we ever forget when they joined the brave band That rose in defense of our dear homeland.
Their memories e'er shall remain for us And their names, bright names, without stain for us.
The glory they won shall not wane for us, In legend and lay, our heroes in gray shall forever live Over again for us.
Deo Vindice |

Not for fame or reward, Not for place of rank, Not lured by ambition or goaded by necessity But in simple obedience to duty As they understood it.
For four weary years, these brave men Suffered all, sacrificed all, dared all And facing death, carried The banner of the Confederacy.
These soldier offered their lives On the altar of their country's liberty.
Dedicated by the Sons of the Confederate Veterans 2nd Frontier District Camp # 1904 And patriotic citizens who generously contributed.
