DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF THOSE WHO MADE THE SUPREME SACRIFICE, AND IN HONOR OF ALL WHO SERVED THEIR COUNTRY IN TIME OF NEED. Inscribed on back - North side : PRESENTED BY THE GREENWOOD CEMETERY ASSOCIATION 1968		Source: Nashville Journal, Nashville, Illinois February 21, 1918 Furnished by : Mike Jones Warning! All cattle found in Greenwood Cemetery will be taken up and owners thereof prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Trustees of Greenwood Cemetery Association. The association has spent time and money in beautifying Greenwood, and the Silent City should be made safe from desecration by bovine invaders. To have the resting place of loved ones trampled is abhorrent and the careless owners of trespassing quadrupeds deserved punishment for disrespect to the dead and violation of the law.
