The tablet set in the brick wall here says "This tablet was placed April 17, 1936." I don't think the sundial is quite that old.

The motto on the bezel states: "I Mark Only The Sunny Hours".

Tragically the gnomon is missing, so it no longer marks any hours, sunny or overcast.

If you are visiting this waymark, be sure to spend some time here to pay respects to the Texas Heroes who are interred here.
Sundial Type: Horizontal - Flat base, Ground or Pedestal mounted dial plate
