Young Thomas was killed when he dropped his rifle while climbing a fence when he was out hunting squirrels. His faithful hunting companion, his dog, refused to leave his grave until he succumbed to grief himself two weeks later.

What to us is life without thee
Darkness and despair alone
When with sighs we seek to find thee
This stone proclaims thou art gone
