Inscription

In memory of Capt. Daniel
Hoar who Died Dec. 4, 1782;
in the 70th year of his age.
He was one of ye first stllers in this town
where he underwent many hardships in
settling this then inhospitable wilderness
He Sustained many of ye Princples offices
in Town & Militia affairs which he discharg-
ed with faithfulness, he was kind & benevolent to ye Poor ye fatherless & widow a friend to
his Country a hater of Tyriny a lover of unity
& peace, but alas Death has called him out
of this world into ye other & has unstrung
his nervous arm & his Sinews are relaxed
his limbs not long ago ye seat of vigor would
lie down motionless & are crumbling into Dust
& has left his Children & Town to mourn his loss.

Make ye extended stars your Tomb, let Stars
Record your worth, yet know, vain Mortals,
all must die, as I leave sick of Earth
