THIS MONUMENT WAS ERECTED BY HIS MOST ATTACHED BROTHER

Lower Panel

TO AN AFFECTIONATE AND AMIABLE DISPOSITION HE UNITED THE STERLING CHARACTERISTICS OF ACTIVE BENEVOLENCE AND TRULY CHRISTIAN PIETY.  HIS MEMORY WILL LONG BE CHERISHED IN THE GRATEFUL HEARTS OF THE MANY, WHOSE SPIRITUAL WELFARE HE SO EARNESTLY SOUGHT TO PROMOTE AND TO WHOSE TEMPORAL WANTS HE EVER LIBERALLY MINISTERED. SHORT WAS HIS DAY UPON EARTH, BUT IN IT HE FULFILLED LIFE’S GREAT END AND IS GONE NOT TO DEATH BUT TO ENJOY THE CROWN OF LIFE TO WHICH HE BECAME HEIR BY A LIVELY FAITH THRO THE MERITS OF CHRIST JESUS OUR SAVIOUR.

“LET ME DIE THE DEATH OF THE RIGHTEOUS AND LET MY LAST END BE LIKE HIS FOR BLESSED ARE THE DEAD WHICH DIE IN THE LORD”
