After taking voluminous public comment on the matter, the County Commission voted late Tuesday night to give the county’s controversial Confederate soldier statue to the Matheson History Museum.

The motion, made by Commissioner Robert Hutchinson, also called for the Matheson to display the monument in its public outside space; use private funding to move, install and maintain it; and the move would only occur after the county engineer approves the tools and techniques planned to move it.

The motion passed 3-2, with Commissioners Lee Pinkoson and Ken Cornell dissenting.

  1. Sad, sad, sad....Yankee indoctrination for the last 150 years has made a large dent in our culture's understanding of what really happened....this is the fruit of their labor.

  2. Some good news as long as the yankee invaders to the South and their SPLC's
    and ACLU communist factors don't make a ruckus. Too bad some good soul
    will not purchase 'Old Joe' and place him on private land off of I-75. Anyway,
    the good news: http://www.11alive.com/story/news/2015/09/24/confederate-flag-plate/72760200/

    land on I-75.
