This one is detailed a bit differently than usual. The Woodmen emblem is below the family name, "Gore", and the logs below the trunk surround it. The inscription plate is attached to the trunk by a looped rope, and the Woodmen tools are worked into the monument's pattern, down low. Note also the tassle and fern frond. The inscription is:
J.E. Gore
Born
Mar. 12, 1862
Died
Jan. 13, 1901
On the base is "Erected by the Woodmen of the World" with an epitaph:
Tis the Lord who hath bereft us of the
one we loved so well
Was the inscription legible?: Yes
