Inscription
In memory of
ANN MURPHY
who departed this life
August 1822,
In hope of Blessed Immortality
aged 45 years.
*******************************
Her soul has now taken its flight
In Mansions of glory above
To mingle with angles of light
And dwell in the kingdom of love
This memorial of her worth is erected
By her Brother who best knew her virtues
And cherishes the recollection of them.
