Diseases fore long time I bore
Physicians proved in vain
Till Death did seize and God did please

who died Nov 3, 1775 n the 27th year of her age
She was a loving wife, a desirable
Companion, a tender & loving mother,
A peaceable, kind & good Neighbor.
Insomuch that she gained a good report
& love of all her Neighbors, in Many
Things she was Exemplary.
Being in her a Meek & humble Sperit
Given to acts of Charity & kindness;
Liberal to the poor, in her Life she
Seemed to behave like a Christian; &
towards her latter end endured long
Sickness with Remarkable patience;
At last with a Resigned will to God's
will laid down her Life with hopes
That through Christ she might
Obtain Eternal Life.

In the 91st year of his age

of the Gospel of Christ,

as coming to the grave in a full age
as a shock of corn cometh in
in his season

Exclaimed the ancient saint
Since thy salvation I have seen;
I die without complaint"
