" ' The United States in Congress assembled, in honor of his patriotism, valor, and ability, have erected this monument. ' " Resolved, That the board of treasury take order for the due execu- tion of the foregoing resolution. " The appropriation thus made was never applied to the purpose intended, and, as has been shown, it remained for a later Congress to appropriately honor the revolutionary hero ; and more than a century after its adoption by the Continental Congress General John M. Wilson, ...then Commissioner of Public Buildings and Grounds, caused the eloquent inscription originally adopted by that body to be car\'ed on the pedestal of the present statue. It may be mentioned here that another still more curious circumstance connected with the subject of this monument lies in the fact that both the date and cause of his death and the actual place of his burial, as w'ell, have ever since been subjects of serious doubt and animated discussion. 21 The statue of General James B. McPherson, * which stands in the square in this city bearing his name, was appropriately inaugurated on the iSth of October, 1876.
