I find, in the church records, a copy of the inscription on the Wade Tomb, with the follow- ing remark on it : " The following is copied from a communication of Turell Tufts, Esq .; there is apparently some error in it. - C. Stetson."
Major Wade's tomb was purchased by the late Ebenezer Hall, and is now in possession of his children. The old tablet removed by Mr. Hall was of red sandstone, and contained the fol- lowing inscriptions : -
" IIere lyeth interred the body of Major Jonathan Wade, Esquire, who departed this life the 24th of November, anno Dom. 1689, in the 53d year of his age.
" Also the body of Dorothy Wade, wife to said Jonathan Wade, Esquire, daughter of IIon- ourable Thomas Dudley, Esquire, deceased the 1st of November, 1638, in the 40th year of her age.
" Also the body of Dudley Wade, son of said Jonathan Wade, Esquire; and
" Also the body of Dorothy Wade, daughter of the said Jonathan Wade, Esquire.
" And Elizabeth Wade, his last wife, who was born the 7th of February, 1637, and deceased the month of June, 1688." [This last date was 1678.]
