He followed virtue as
his truest guide
Lived as a Christian --
as a Christian died.

Note his leap year birthday, as well as "Wolf City" instead of "Wolfe City". It's been "Wolfe City" since it was changed from "Wolfe's Mill", for L.P. Wolfe, the town founder, who operated a mill here. Mr. Wolfe is also buried with his family nearby.
