March 30, 1867. The plan was backed by the most prominent men in the country at the time, and $100,000 was raised by popular subscription. The design for the monument was executed by Clark Mills, the sculptor, a site In front of the Capitol was selected, and captured Confederate cannon were turned over to the association by the war department from which to cast the bronze figures surmounting the pedes- tal. But the association and Its organizers seem to have vanished Into thin air, work on the monument was never even begun, and so far as can be learned the money was never returned. From 1867 to 1882 the record of the association is clear, but there Is absolutely nothing to show what became of t after that date.

The third Is the ransomed slave, redeemed from bondage by the blood of Liberty, who. having struck off his shackles, holds them triumphantly aloft. The slave is pictured gratefully bowing at her feet. "Between these groups are three bas reliefs. The first represents firing on Fort Sumter.
