Name: Dr. Josiah Baker
Location: South Dennis, MA
Date: 1810
Carver: Frederick Manning
The epitaph reads:
"I once have lived. I once
did health enjoy.
In youthful vigor clad
without alloy
The stage of life I just
was ushered on
With hope elated life's
full race to run
But heaven forbid it by its
just decree
Cut short my life & set
my spirit free
You who behold this statue
where I lie
May it remind you of
Mortality."
Dr. Baker was 31.
