Remembering J D Witte in Wallis Texas died 1899

While walking through the Wallis Cemetery looking for graves for a request at http://www.findagrave.com/ I came across a gravestone laying on the ground.

At the top of the grave is a gate door open

Resting here is

J D Witte

March 26 1861

August 13 1899

this grave stone has broken off its pedastal and is just laying on the ground. With nothing by initials hard to identify who this person was.
