My lady is working on a CLI - cultural landscape inventory - for the national parks service in Alaska. Her site is an old mining town and she needs this stone engraving translated. You'd be helping preserve a piece of this sites history and heritage.

It looks like the gravestone for a man whose first name is Hayataro. Sorry that's the only part I can read for sure.
I can almost see the word Matsushima, which might possibly mean that he is originally from a town named that (which sadly are numerous).
This is just a shot but you may want to look at this list for a Hayataro Osumi.
