This marker is without the distinctive log but carries the emblem of the Woodmen of the World with its motto "Dum Taget Clamet". The monument is interesting in that it also is made of White Bronze (
visit link) and is a bit more ornate than many other W.O.W. grave markers. The markers became much more simple over time and later monuments such as this one often did not use the log or stump stylistically.
This monument is for the Morris family. The base of the monument reads:
Here Lies a Woodman of the World.
J. Morris lived from 1858 until 1914.
