-, By the side of the preceding stone are fragments of another. When matched as far as possible the following portions of an inscription were made out: [worn] Mem [worn ] mr Jose[worn] Died [worn] 4th 1780 in [worn] 75th year [worn ]er Age.


The space between the line on which Mem[ory] appears and that on which mr Jose[ph] is found indicates that the name of a wife or child of Jose[ph] was on the missing fragment. The sex is shown by the expression " [h]er Age," and the age, 75, indicates a wife rather than a daughter.


As these fragments lie beside the stone of Joseph White who died two years later, in 1782, at the age of So. it seems safe to assume that they were formerly a part of his wife's stone.
