This humble monument is
erected in memory of
Mr. Jacob Kimball
who departed this life
Nov 8, 1810 AEt 79
No man ever suffered more domes
the sorrow than he did, with more
Christian fortitude till overcome
with age and sickness and his
pultiplied distresses, his strong
and steady mind sunk under the
complicated pressure, unable to sustain the sad variety of woes
Sorrow and age and sickness all assail'd
Till strength and health & mentle reason fail'd
The state though that many a storm has borne,
At last is by o'erwhelming floods uptorn.
