Inscription

Mrs. HANNAH
wife of Mr. SETH SHELDON
died August 12, 1820
in her 73 year.
-----
The memory of the just is blessed.
-----
Surviving friends, her virtues claim;
Some kind memorial of her name.
And while she sleeps in dust,
Tis yours with pious care to tread
Her steps as far as Jesus led;
Till Heaven demand your breath.
