Inscription


Here lies the body of Jane Fish…of Nathaniel Fish, who having endured a painful and lingering disease with invincible patience and calm resignation departed this life March 24th, 1789, in the 73rd year of her age.
It is good for me that I have been afflicted,
For our light affliction which is but for a moment,
Worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
