Samuel Coan 1847
In memory of
CAPT. SAMUEL COAN
who died
April 26, 1847
aged 54 yrs. 7 mos.
& 6 days
He is gone! and tears are starting,
Coursing over manhood's cheek;
Hearts are wrung in this sad parting
With a woe they cannot speak.
Sacred is the wife's deep sorrow
Sacred is the childrens grief!
Look above and comfort borrow,
God alone can give relief!
He is gone to rest from his labors.
