Name: Hannah Wells
Location: Truro, MA
Date: 1780
Carver: John Homer
The epitaph is told from the point of view of her widowed husband.
"Ye Guardian Angels that protect the just,
Preserve in Silent peace this Sacred Dust.
Here undisturbd and quiet let her Sleep,
Whilst I Behind am Left alone to Weep.
To weep Indignant thought I'd Rather say,
to wait impatient for that awfull day,
When in her tomb my Ashes join with this,
Shall meet above in Extacy and Bliss."
