Erected
By
MARGARET ELLES
Chapleshade, in memory of her
husband
JOHN BATCHELOR
who died 4th July 1803
aged 35 years
and of their children
Viz
AGNES, ELIZABETH, JAMES
HELEN, JAMES and JEAN
who all died in infancy. |
The grave dissolves each social tie
And tells us too that we must die
And then corruption see
Happy they are whose hopes do rise
High as the honours of the skies
Where joys immortal be.
