Inscription

"Although no wife or children dear,
Are left to show affection's tear
For thou, who in the prime of life,
Didst die and leave this world of strife.

Yet a fond brother still lingers here,
Who'll ever hold thy memory dear,
And oft for thee will heave a sigh,
And try to meet thee when I die.

Yes, yes, in that bright Heav'n above
Where nought is heard but praise & love
I trust together we shall dwell;
Till then dear brother fare thee well."
