The family name, "Russell", is on the plinth, with this inscription, above:

James B.
Russell

Born
Sept. 10, 1860

Died
Nov. 13, 1912

Although he sleeps
His memory doth live
And cheering comfort
To his mourners give.

------

Just next to him, it is nteresting to note the tree trunk monument, not issued by the Woodmen, for his wife, Paralee, with an inscription that is all too true:

Remember friend as you pass by, as you are now, so once was I. As I am now so you will be, prepare for death and follow me.
Was the inscription legible?: Yes
