On the stone to the memory of Thomas Jackson, died in 1794:—
The spider’s most attenuated thread
Is cord, is cable, to man’s tender tie.
MARTHA COTTON, 1796.
Many years I lived
Many painful scenes I passed,
Till God at last
Called me home.
In a long lot enclosed with an iron fence:—
F. W. Jackson. obit M. C. H. 23, 1797, 1 yr. 7 dys,
Heav’n knows what man
He might have made. But we
He died a most rare boy.
