Aaron King 178218 viewsIn Memory of
Mr Aaron King Ju
Who died
Oct 4th 1782
Aged 28 Years
From stately Palaces
we must remove
The narrow lodgings
of a grave to prove
Leave the fair train
and the light gilded
room to lie alone
benighted in the tomb.
God alone is immortal
man not so
Life to be paid
on demand we owe

John Mosely 178024 viewsThis monument is erected to ye
memory of Col John Mosely
who departed this life on the
first day of Sept AD 1780 in the
56th year of his age
When virtue falls a victim to the grave
in life distinguish by the wise & brave
Let friends hip deck ye urn with choicest flowers
Let melancholy mark the lonely hours
in every breast let pity heave a sigh
and feel ye solemn truth that all must die
mingle with dust in earth's cold bosom lie

The great the good the wise the just
Must all in time be turnd to dust
Then learn to quit terrestrial ties
That you may soar above ye skies
And then enjoy the blissful favor
Of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior
HALT passenger Observe
the contents regard the date
& Promise not on tomorrow
