Odd Carving in Rock

[EC.Mason]

Hey all, this is a longshot and I know very little about the KGC. I live in Eastern Ky and an older lady told me a story about a rock that was over what seemed to be a grave. The rock was supposedly carved by Jesse James. On the rock was carved "Slaw B. Ott" or maybe "S. law boot". Something to that effect. The rock is gone but it was supposedly added to a culvert at an old homestead. Would anyone have any idea what that saying may be? Im trying to get more information from this lady and will share soon as I do.

Not a clue...

No clue either! What I would do is ask her to show you the area. If you are allowed to detect it then do so. Since she is not sure what it was IMO, dig it. Maybe you will find treasure, maybe you will find nothing.
