I was in downtown Greenville SC last Saturday and stopped by to see the plot in Springwood Cemetery where something like 70 unknown Confederate soldiers are buried. There were two hospitals in Greenville during the war, and sometimes when these men died there was no identification, and they would get them in the ground as quickly as they could. It was a beautiful sunny afternoon so I took a few pictures, and only afterward thought about how past and present exist so close together here, with the Confederate veterans graves in the foreground, and 20th and 21st century buildings in the background.
