Stone badly broken. Seems to have died on the 15th day, in a month starting with the letter "J" in the year 181?. He is buried next to Martha Skiles who died in 1818 at the age of 73, putting her birth around the year of 1755. Also note there is a number "5" right below the 5 in the number 15, this is most likly PART of his age at death.
Seems to be engraved identical style to his wife's stone.

181? aged ?5

I personally think its January 15th (based on length of letters) and age would be 75 years at death.
