Inscription

IN Memory of
Capt. ELKANAH ASHLEY
who died June 23d
1803
in the 34th year of his
age.
______

When suns and planets from
their orbs be hurl'd
And livid flames involve
this smoking world
The TRUMP of GOD an-
nounce the Saviour's nigh
And shining hosts of Angels
crowd the sky,
Then from this tomb, thy dust
shall they covey
To happier regions of Eternal
day.
