Inscription

Inscribed in the memory of
James G. Hardy
Lieut. of Kentucky
by his widow M.K.H.
Beneath this slab is deposited the remains
of the Statesman, Friend, Father and Husband.
In the charge of the duties pertaining to those
relations in life the Christian grace shown
preeminently.

In his last lucid moments the Christian Hope
buoyed him above the pangs dissolution.
Peace to his ashes till the resurrection morn.

Oh weep not for those in the Tomb
