Inscription

Co E 52 NC TRP CSA

A gallant solider an empty sleeve Marked his form for forty years or more Strong of will yet gentle as a summer's breeze Admonishing all to meet loved ones gone before.

This life was hid with Christ in God. The assurance to us given And for him to fall asleep & to awaken in heaven.
