HIBERNIAN.

Here lies John Higley, whose father and mother were

drowned in their passage from America.

Had they both lived, they would have been buried here.(!)

Here lies the body of John Mound,

Lost at sea and never found.

O cruel Death! how could you be so unkind,

To take him before and leave me behind?

You should have taken both of us if either;

Which would have been more pleasing to the survivor!

Here lies father and mother, and sister and I,—

They all died within the short space of one year.

They all be buried at Wimble but I,

And I be buried here.

Erected by Patrick Kelly,

Of the town of Drogheda, Mariner,

In Memory of his Posterity.

Also the above Patrick Kelly,

Who departed this Life the 12th August 1844,

Age 60 years,

Requiescat in pace.

Here lyes the Bodeys of George Young and Isabel Guthrie, and all their Posterity for more than fifty years backwards.

Here lies the body of James Vernon, Esq., only surviving son of Admiral Vernon: died 23rd July 1753.

Here lies John Thomas

And his children dear;

Two buried at Oswestry,

And one here.

Here lies the body of John Eldred,

At least he will be here when he is dead;

But now at this time he is alive,

The 14th of August ’sixty-five.
