Marker Text: ​Established in 1818 as an individual claim by James Briton Bailey, a member later of Austin's colony. Born 1779, Bailey was tall, fearless, of Irish stock.
    At his request, he was buried (1833) standing up, facing west, gun at side.
    His restless ghost is said to walk this prairie. (1968)
