The Taylor Monument.


Here lie the remains of Mary Richmond, Born May 13th, 1796, died March 14th, 1843, consort of John Taylor,


who erects this deserved tribute to her memory.


Stranger tread lightly on this dust, Nor desecrate this grave, Tho' death destroy, and worms may feast, Her noble soul has gone to rest Sweetly sleeps her rising dust,


To the resurrection of the just. In memory of Mary Jane, aged 16 months, 1824. Anna Maria, 3 months, 1829, Jane Elizabeth, 1 mo., 1836. Daughters of John and Mary Taylor. Ah! Death, could not your shaft then spare Those rose buds of innocence so fair, To spread their fragrance. Ah! so must all Bow to the stroke, when God doth call. Sleep on sweet babes, embalmed you are, With bleeding hearts and many a tear.
