Inscription

In memory of
Capt. Nathan Harwood
who died Feb the 3 1790
in the 55 year of his age

"Stop passenger & view this stone
Beneath in dust & you'll be soon
I lived once as you may find
A father dear a husband kind
To all mankind a faithful friend
On Providence did depend
But now I'm gone and you must be
Prepared soon to follow me"
