HISTORY OF DODDRIDGE COUNTY

The Epitaph on Ephraim Bee's Gravestone;

"A precious one from us has gone, a voice so loved is stilled.
A place is vacant in our home, that never can be filled
God in his wisdom has recalled the precious boon his love had given. Although the body molders here, his soul is safe in heaven."
"O Death, where is thy sting, O grave, where is thy Victory."

At the foot of Ephraim’s Monument is a small stone block inscribed with the letters “ECV”. This was placed by members of the “Ancient and Honorable Order of E Clampus Vitus” (ECV), the Fraternal Order founded by Ephraim.
