Bielsk 1914

The photo above appears in a German language book published in 1923. The caption under the photo says "Bielsk 1914."

Two sentences refer to the photo. A machine translation reads, roughly:
Of two stones standing directly next to each other, both of which bear the heraldic animal of the deer (Fig. 35), one is dedicated to [a person named] "Hirsch" [which means deer], the other to a completely different and quite dissimilar name.

Unfortunately the names are not visible on the picture. However, these two stones have been photographed together precisely for the reason that [they have a similar design but different names and] stood so directly and conspicuously next to each other.
