This is a detail from a memorial @ Gettysburg. The entire monument depicts an actual event occuring on July 3rd, 1863.

Anyone care to offer the details?

General Armistead (CSA) is giving his watch to Capt Bingham (USA) his watch to return to his family. Very Good choice.

That's the Brother to Brother monument showing Armistead giving a note for Hancock to Hancock's aide.
Good night.

I believe it's actually the Friend to Friend monument. Both were Masons (you can see the symbol, compass & square)My memory is pretty shot. Help me out Soap. Am I close?

I won't say who sent it but an e-mailed comment suggested this might be Davis Ruark handing his keys to Mike Lewis.
