Inscription
"Erected in memory of
John Gerry
of this parish
who departed this life
the 18th day of June 1847
aged 31 years
The remains of a Christian lies here underneath
Who believed the Gospel and died in the faith
He now sleeps in Jesus, from pain is set free,
And Jesus in glory, for ever will see.
O! Reader take warning, don't trifle away
That precious time which thou hast to stay.
Rest not without knowing your sins all for given
And then you will rest for ever in Heaven."
