Description:: Card Text \(transcribed from postcard\): On Monument Ave., in the western portion of the City. To the left is shown a remnant of the original earth works which formed a part of the inner defenses of the City during the Civil War. The group of 'Old' Confederate Veterans standing near lend an added interest to this fast disappearing relic of the trying days of '61-'65. In the distance appears the superb 'Davis Monument.'
