Inscription

“Here lie the father, mother, sister, and brother of the pastor of the flock of the English protomartyr. His father was Hugh Bostock and his mother Margaret Macry. His name was the same; the son derives it from the father. Whoever thou art who passest by, whether man, woman, or child, pray (pecare) that, as they lie together, so they may rest in peace.”
