Inscription
From photo recorder friends:
RB Hall & MS Gallea, 08 AUG 2011
I was unable to read the entire inscription. What I could make out on the larger stone was two "L"s and a "G" on the top curve, the name Dwight H halfway down the stone and Age 26 yrs 10 mos below the place where the death date was worn down. The smaller stone is white marble has the initials D H A carved on the top.
I wish it could have been a clearer monument but time does take it's toll on these old markers. I think the reason I could read as much as I could is that the stone faced west and there was a tree line on that side of the cemetery, otherwise the entire cemetery sits pretty much on the open prairie with nothing else around it but flat fields.
