(Music segue to BlueGray)
"Today we are visiting the graves of 13 unknown Confederate soldiers at a site just north of Tupelo, Mississippi as we make our way up the Natchez Trace Parkway from Natchez, Mississippi to Nashville, Tennessee. A 5 minute walk takes visitors to the top of a small hill where these graves can be seen.
"By the time the American Civil War began much of the Old Natchez Trace was no longer used, but the war impacted the area as it did the entire nation. The soldiers whose graves lie atop this hill may have fought at the Battle of Shiloh, or they may have served under Nathan Bedford Forest, or as part of J. B. Hood's Army of Tennessee -- we may never know. The grave markers here have long since vanished and the names they carried, if ever they carried names, have disappeared with them. The National Park Service has erected 13 headstones. Each carries the inscription, UNKNOWN CONFEDERATE SOLDIER.
"In the background you hear another of the RoadMusic® pieces written to accompany the Natchez Trace Journey through this bit of Civil War History.
(brief interlude)
"Join us on our next program when we will visit Dogwood Valley. For Natchez Trace a road through the wilderness, I'm Frank Thomas."
