The Farmers Cabinet, on Tues., 8 April 1879, reported that the monument would be made of Fitzwilliam Granite, and stand 15 feet, 6 inches high, and was supposed to be dedicated that July 4th. Owing to a disagreement as to where to erect the monument, it wasn't until Christmas Day 1879 when the dedication took place. A landowner beside the South Cemetery had donated land for the memorial.
