Inscription

This inscription is on the rear of the headstone...

O DEATH
Youth,Beauty,Virtue blooming hope
lies here,a victim to thy rage.
For here we lie, no human skill
nor medicine could relieve.
Affliction long with spirit meek,
with patience great we bore.
We lived in love and died in hope
to meet and part no more.
________________
William Shaw
Son of James Shaw and Grace Clingan,
who died 22nd Nov.r 1854 aged 4-1/2 years.
