Inscription
SACRED
To the Memory of
Dea. ISAAC SHEPARD
who died
August 22, 1819:
Æt. 74.
Just were his ways, peaceful & meek his mind,
He liv'd a tender Husband, Parent kind;
From youth to age, religion was his choice,
In death could say, "I in my God rejoice."
SACRED
To the Memory of
Mrs. JEMIMA SHEPARD,
Wife of Dea. Isaac Shepard
who died Jan. 3, 1830:
Æt. 82.
In early life she felt affliction's rod,
Yet firmly trusted in her Saviour God;
Her useful life cofirmed to the last,
Our grief sincere when such a life is passed.
