While "Erected by the Woodmen of the World" on a ribbon is fairly common, this one is unusual in that the emblem's tree trunk is worked into both the monument trunk and the inscription plate, along with "Dum Tacet Clamat". The inscription reads:

J.B. Baggett

Born
May 22, 1876
Died
May 2, 1907

---

He was a kind and
affectionate
husband, a fond
father and a friend
to all.
Was the inscription legible?: Yes
