Year of his age.
Also Jane, relict of the above named
John HOLGATE who departed this
Life October 16th 1848 aged 61 years
When sorrowing oe'r some stone we bend
Which covers all that was a friend
And from her hand, her voice, her smile,
Death divides us for a while;
Thou Saviour see'sl the tears we shed,
for thou did'st weep oe'r Lazarus dead.
