Grand Army of the Republic Memoiral Fountain Dedication
Description:
Drinking fountain at Campau Square (at Monroe Ave. and Pearl St.). The ladies in costume are the Betsy Ross quartet of the Canton Ohio Daughters of Union Veterans: Elizabeth Waterson, Laura Moorehead, Enid Myers, Cora Lambright. This fountain was removed when the Foster-Stevens building was sold, to be reset when the drainage can be arranged. The four ladies, in long dresses and bonnets, stand behind the fountain, which is etched “Lest we forget the G.A.R.; fraternity, charity, loyalty”.
