INSCRIPTION

JOHN ye son of JOHN

And ANN MERRIFIELD

Of this town died Oct ye

11th 1755 aged 15 years

By floods of waters I was swept

Out of this painful world

In floods of tears I left my friends

To think where I was hurl’d

But since you have my body

And laid it in the dust

My innocence hath fitted me

To live among the just
