Inscription
To the memory of
JOHN GRANT, of Kilgraston, Esquire,
who died at Edinburgh 29th March 1793.
He was several years a member of the Assembly,
and an assistant Judge of the Supreme Court
in the Island of Jamaica, where he obtained
the office of Chief Justice in January 1783.
His worth and virtues as a man endeared him in the
affections and survived in the regret of many friends.
The integrity and abilities which raised him to that station
will be long remembered in the Island where he filled it,
and by that profession who witnessed their exercise
in the discharge of its duties.
