Andrew 18 May 1826-16 May 1907
Margaret 24 Sep 1827-16 Feb 1912

A PRECIOUS ONE FROM US HAS GONE,
A VOICE WE LOVED IS STILLED.
A PLACE IS VACANT IN OUR HOME,
WHICH NEVER CAN BE FILLED.
GOD IN HIS WISDOM HAS RECALLED,
THE BOON HIS LOVE HAD GIVEN.
AND THOUGH THE BODY SLUMBERS HERE,
THE SOUL IS SAFE IN HEAVEN.
