This plot is a monument to those who died with their boots on, and were buried with their boots on. "To any Traveler who may pass this way, and climb this lonely hill and say A prayer for us who early found our rest upon the prairies wind-swept ageless breast. Weep not for us who early made our beds, wrapped in our blankets, saddles for our heads. Fore we are happy here, secure and still, locked in this rock-strewn, silent, sun-baked hill." ~Josephine McIntire in "Boot Hill". Sponsored by Dodge City Jaycees.
