Angel guardian
over
Winnie Davis

of
Jefferson and Varina Davis.

President Jefferson Davis and his lady, Varina, are sleeping here, May 7, 2003.

We know of no greater act of respect than to drape their flag over, as they sleep.

This flag now flies over the northern most 1865 fortification trenches at Brook Run, north of Richmond.

We are proud of Jefferson Davis, the Welshman, and his wife Varina for their steadfast conviction.

The people of the South salute them and cherish their memory - Deo Vindice.
