Inscription
From the transcription:
"Polly Annable daughter of Ansel D.[encircled] & Lucretia C.[encircled] Annable
died August 1, 1834 in the 14th year of her age.
Come all ye lovely tender youth,
While health is blooming on each cheek,
Attend the words of sacred truth,
And solid joy and comfort seek."
Gravesite Details
Farther down on this same page, it's noted that Samuel Annable's death was memorilized on "Polly Annable"'s headstone, but which of two Pollys in the manuscript isn't specified, nor is their relationship.
