Battle of Spotsylvania Courthouse

Lee made his headquarters on this ground. Plaque reads: "May 12-18, 1864. Between the armies of Lee and Grant is unmatched for its display of unyielding heroism and devotion to duty and principle. Here thousands of valorous men, fighting with bayonets and clubbed muskets, wrote their imperishable epitaph." UDC 1927
