Farewell thou dear departed friend
Released from toil and care
Now may thy spirit flight ascend
To scenes of bliss that never end
And may I meet thee there
Farewell dear husband, a short farewell
Thy voice we hear no more
But may we meet thee ne'er to part
On Canaan's peaceful shore

This marble gravestone was carved by Josiah Sparrow II of Orleans according to probate records. The style is influenced by carver William Sturgis.
