Inscription:
Sacred to the memory of
Mrs Lydia (Durkee) Butler
Relict to Mr. Eleazer Butler
Who departed this life
April 10 1812
Age 77 years
A life of usefulness she spent below
She lives we trust a life of glory now
Her hopes in Christ were fixed in life's decay
From which the spirit rose to endless day
