Inscription

In Memory of, Brig'd Gen'l, Moses Ashley Esq'r, who being in perfect health and in the midst of public business, died in a sudden and unexpected manner August 25, 1791 , in the 43'd year of his age.
Bost of thy conquest death ore human things, The pomp of empires and the pride of kings,
But know the saints shall burst their chains & rise, To thrones celestial in their kindred skies.
