Inscription

Sacred to the memory of Mr. Alexander Shaw, son of Dea. Asael Shaw and Sarah, his wife; he was born Nov. 4, 1778, died May 8, 1818 in the 40th year of his age.

Ah, how uncertain is life's slender thread;
How soon, alas! We mingle with the dust.
Today, our hopes on airy pinions rise,
And brightening prospects swim before our eyes;
Tomorrow, death shuts out the scene of life,
And breaks the tie of parent, friend and wife.
