Inscription

"To our memory ever dear
is the body that slumbers here
His toils over. His work is done
His heavenly joys are just begun."

The inscription was revealed by a crayon rubbing of the headstone from an earlier visit. The headstone has fallen since which does not show the face of the stone.
