2nd wife of Lars Olsen

Inscription Translation:
Here below rests the mortal remains of
Maline Olson
Born 1 Jan 1799
Died 2 Dec 1895
95 Years 11 Months 2 Days
Peace be with her mortal remains
When the church bells sound
and the soil falls down,
I with a lovely crown
shall go before the Lord
and pray well for you
who stand around the grave.
O, dear friends, weep not then for me!

Note: Lars' grave is next to hers; the photo is indexed as Lars Olsen (rather than Olson).
