Inscription

Erected
to the memory of
JOSHUA SAWYER,
who died
Sept. 10, 1864;
Aged 33 years.

To this lone sport I love to stray,
Where sleeps the dust of that dear one
Who fled so soon from earth away,
Ere yet his life was scarce begun.

Oh lowly spot! O husband dear,
I almost envy thee thy bliss;
O, gladly would I leave earth's care,
For such a resting place as this.
