The Latin Inscription 


Hic conduntur
Infantuli
Maria et Gulielmus
Liberi
Gulielmi et Agnes Hammerton
De Hipperholmia:
     
Illa obiit 8. Die Martii,
Anno humanæ Salutis
1793
Hic 10o Die Julii
AD: 1795
     
Cara Maria vale! conclamat pallida Mater,
Dum Pater infelix, mi Gulielme vale.
Nobis ſint lacrymæ, vobis pyra carmina: majus.
Reddere nec mater, nec pater ipse queat
