GV II

Headstone. 1795 to James Charlton aged 24. Sandstone tablet with scrolled pedimented top holding shell. Moulded surround. Relief carving of urn and symbols of death. Inscribed: Our life tho' short is mix'd with much alloy. Death blasts a father's hope, a mother's joy. Their fondest prospects quickly does destroy. From us, alas, our darling youth is torn This may excuse our weakness when we mourn. Ours is the loss, the gain is all his own.
