Yeah, but how many Confederate dead got a state funeral? How many of them got their funeral paid for by the state? Let the UDC and SCV bury them at private expense.

Many of them, especially if they recieved a Pension from the State of South Carolina, had their funerals paid for.

These men were pioneers, and took extreme risks...they deserve to be buried with honors.
