Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Donation and Dedication: Of the Eighty-Two Feet Steel Liberty Pole at the Park in Garnavillo, Iowa, November 7, A. D. 1918
James O. Crosby of Garnavillo: To this nature's beauty spot, the Garnavillo Park, I donate this steel Liberty Pole, and dedicate it to the self-evident truth that all men are created equal; that the Creator has en dowed them with certain, unalienable rights; that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.
That to secure these rights Governments are instituted among men deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.
