Bio by: Curtis Jackson
Inscription
Front: Medallion of Peter Jackson
"This was a man." -Shakespeare
Side: To the memory of Peter Jackson, who died at Roma Q., 13th July, 1901. Aged 40 years.
Side: Sleep, Peter, sleep, brave champion,
All hushed we gather round the ring;
While snow-white flowers moist eyed we fling
Within a grave . . . the fight is done.
Sleep, Peter, sleep, the hero's rest
Be thine in Mother Earth's broad breast.
Erected by his Australian friends and admirers.
