"...Soon after disposing of his farm Mr. Hart removed to Burlington, where his eighth child died, Aug. 10, 1774, and was buried at the north cemetery, Bristol, where his five youngest children have tombstones. He was active in forming the church at Burlington, and was one of its first Deacons. He was Justice of the Peace for several years. When Bristol, including Burlington, was made a town, in 1785, he was their first Representative in the State Legislature. He lived an eminently useful life, and died instantly, Jan 12, 1800, his wife having died the day previous."

Inscription
"Here lieth the bodies of Deacon Simeon Hart,
and Sarah, his wife;
She died January 11th, 1800,
Aged 62, and he died
January 12th, 1800, Aged 64.
They were eminent for Piety,
Charity, and Christian Morality.
Inexorable death, thou sweep's away
The kind, compassionate, and just,
All flesh by thee is turned to clay,
And moulders into common dust.
Here ends they reign, the soul shall rise,
(If Grace the heart hath well refined,)
Shall join the chorus of the skies,
In Hallelujahs to the Eternal Mind."
