HERE lyeth the Body of
Will'm WHITE, who departed
this life November th19.1699.
Aged 62 years.
To leave this painful life I did desire,
That I to heavenly mansions, might aspire
Wherefore I laboured with all my might.
To gain acceptance in my Saviours light,
knowing that you & I must once appear
Before ye Judgement seat of God to hear
Our final doom and if ye good account
(Exceed ye bad) then to Heaven
Shall mount
Here lieth the
Body of ELIZABETH the
Wife of WILLIAM SOWDEN
And Daughter of
ROBERT AND FRANCES MASON
Who died May 24th 1741, Aged 31
Past from the sorrows of a Sinfull Life,
To Joyes above where neither care nor strife
Can she Invade or Decompose that Rest,
Which is eternal and for ever Blest.
Footstone:
Although ye Tongue should do her part,
An all we can conceive in heart
We should express her well spent days
Whe should nor could not fully praies
Who lies beneath in life bereaven,
Her Body here her soul in Heaven.

Farewell my dear and loving Wife,
Gods Will must be obey'd

My God did call, Death did arrest and sent me to my grave
Thy loss is great, a Husband dear
