Probably Psalm 102:23 - "He brought down my strength in my journey and shortened my days".
An epitaph found on older grave markers used for people that died of an illness (most often a prolonged one).
This was known as "McTavish's Grove" on the north bank of Castor river, about 1/4 mile west of Kenmore (on what is now the Fetterley farm).
