Inscription
In loving memory of Sarah Elizabeth Howcutt who departed this life January 13th 1891 aged 46 years.
A tender wife, a mother dear
A faithful friend lies, sleeping, here,
In love she lived, in peace she died.
Her life was craved but God denied.
Also of Harriet Mary, daughter of the above, who departed this life April 6th 1878 aged 18 months.
Also of Mark Howcutt who departed this life November 24th 1897 aged 60 years.
A bitter grief a shock severe,
To part with one we loved so dear
Our loss is great, We'll not complain,
But trust in heaven to meet again.
In the midst of life we are in death.
