It consists of a statue of a Confederate Army soldier in mid-stride, mounted on top of a temple-like structure supported by four cannon-shaped Ionic columns. The columns support a lintel structure bearing inscriptions on three sides, above which is a tiered roof with cannonballs at the corners. The temple structure is {{convert|15|ft|m}} high, and {{convert|10|ft|m}} square; the statue measures {{convert|76|in|m}} by {{convert|28|in|m}} by {{convert|28|in|m}}. Both the statue and the temple are constructed of gray/blue striated marble. Inside the temple structure is a water fountain that no longer works.[2] The monument was built in 1910 at a cost of over $2,800, and was paid for by the local chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy. It is believed to be the first fountain-style Confederate monument in the South. The front (south) side of the monument is inscribed "CSA 1861 - 1865 / ERECTED BY THE HENRY G. BUNN CHAPTER / UNITED DAUGHTERS OF THE CONFEDERACY / 1909". The north side is inscribed "'TRUTH CRUSHED TO EARTH SHALL RISE AGAIN.' / 'EVEN DEATH CANNOT SEVER THE CORDS OF MEMORY.'" The western lintel reads "'IN HONOR OF THE CONFEDERATE SOLDIERS / OF UNION COUNTY, ARK.'". The eastern lintel has a pair of crossed swords on it.[2] The monument was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.[1] It was included in the El Dorado Commercial Historic District in 2003.[3] See also
