What one can learn with the interwebz - Woodman of the World was an insurance company that at the least made sure a member would have a headstone.

Yep! I've sort of been cataloging the different emblems on the Woodman stones, since the whole concept fascinates me. Saw on the other day that was a globe with a tree around it. This one, with the wheat sheaves, the dove and the log and ax, is the most common around here -- this one was the clearest I have seen, though. "Dum Tacet Clamat" means "Though silent, he speaks," which I thought was cool, and an appropriate title on this journal.
