Inscription
Sacred to the memory of Mr Timothy Marr, aged twenty-four years,
also Mrs Celia Marr his wife, aged twenty-four years,
and their son Timothy Marr, aged three months,
all of whom were most inhumanely murdered in their dwelling house,
No. 29 Ratcliffe Highway, Dec.8, 1811
Stop mortal, as you pass by
And view the grave werein doth lie
A Father, Mother and a Son
Whose Earthly course was shortly run.
For lo all in one fatal hour
O'er came were they with ruthless power
And murdered in a cruel state
Yea, far too horrid to relate!
They spared no-one to tell the tale
One for the other could not wail
The other's fate in anguish sighed
Loving they lived, together died
Reflect, O Reader, o'er their fate
And turn from sin before too late
Life is uncertain in this world
Oft in a moment we are hurled
To endless bliss or endless pain
So let not sin within you reign.
