Inscription
William White Morris
third son of
Robert and Mary Morris
of Philadelphia
died of a fever Octr 1798
in the 25th Year of his Age
much regretted.
(several lines indistinct, closing as follows:)
in Society a useful member and
to his Country a valuable Citizen.
Of manners gentle and of mind sincere,
To all his friends his life was truly dear;
Tho' short the summons and abrupt the call,
Resigned, he bowed to death, that conquers all.
