Inscription

Erected
to the Memory of
Capt. John Campbell
who died
Feb. 28, 1812
in the 57 year
of his age
Jesus can make a dying bed
Feel soft, as downy pillows are.
While on his breast, I lean my head,
And breath my life out sweetly there.
Epitaph from early 1900's notebook of Ella S. Wilder Webster & her father, George A. Wilder
