Broken Headstone at Mount Pleasant Cemetery
Description
Mount Pleasant Cemetery Is The Oldest Cemetery In Sioux Falls, Sd. It Is Where I Have Found Many Of The Interesting Grave Markers To Model And Share Here. I Saw This One On Friday When I Was Walking Leisurely Through The Cemetery And I Was Inspired By The Obvious Age But Dignified Appearance Of This Particular Headstone. I Was Unable To Read It As It Is Badly Worn From Over A Century Of Exposure To The Harsh Climate Of South Dakota, But I Did Find That When I Applied A Raking Angle Of Light On My Model, A Few Letters Became Legible. Maybe Someone Out There Can Read What This Headstone Says? In Spite Of Being Broken And Worn, It Is Still Treated With Great Respect. At Some Point In The Past Someone Had Tried To Repair It But The Wear And Tear Of The Extreme Seasons Here Undid The Repair And The Top Of The Headstone Now Rests At Its Own Foot.
