Charge to the Sons of Confederate Veterans:
"To you, Sons of Confederate Veterans, we submit the vindication of the Cause for which we fought; to your strength will be given the defense of the Confederate soldier's good name, the guardianship of his history, the emulation of his virtues, the perpetuation of those principles he loved and which made him glorious and which you also cherish. Remember, it is your duty to see that the true history of the South is presented to future generations."
- Lt. General Stephen Dill Lee, Commander General United Confederate Veterans, New Orleans, LA, April 25, 1906.

Welcome to the Brig/Gen Benjamin G. Humphreys Camp # 1625 which serves the MS Delta. We are very active in educational programs, Confederate headstone/cemetery dedications, Confederate Memorial Day ceremonies, and preservation projects. There is a ladies auxillary, the Ella Palmer Chapter #9, Order of Confederate Rose, that supports the Camp and the Brig./Gen. Charles Clark Chapter #253, a Chapter of the Military Order of the Stars and Bars for those who are descendants of Confederate Officers. We meet every first Thursday of the month at 7:00 pm at the First Presbyterian Church Fellowship Hall on Catchings Street in Indianola, MS. Our meetings are always open to the public and you are invited to bring the whole family.
