The inscription reads : "Here lie the remains of James Fontaine, son of James Fontaine of this parish and Frances Elizabeth, his late wife. He was devoted by his father's wishes and his own to the Ministry, but God has withdrawn him to an early rest in his 20th. year. His seizure was sudden but not quite unawares, for he was allowed to utter one compendious sermon : 'In the midst of life we are in death. God's Will be done.' Thursday saw him cheerful and grateful for health. Saturday August 6th. 1825 a pale corpse. For a season, farewell."
