Humerous Grave Stones

Anna Wallace

The children of Israel wanted bread And the Lord sent them manna,

Old clerk Wallace wanted a wife, And the Devil sent him Anna.

Sir John Strange

Here lies an honest lawyer,

And that is Strange.

Sacred to the memory of my husband John Barnes,

who died January 3, 1803

His comely young widow, aged 23,

has many qualifications of a good wife,

and yearns to be comforted.

Here lies an Atheist,

All dressed up

And no place to go.

Ann Mann

Here lies Ann Mann,

Who lived an old maid

But died an old Mann.

Dec. 8, 1767

Russell J. Larsen buried in Logan, Ut.

Two things I love most,good horses and beautiful women,

And when I die I hope they tan this old hide of mineand make it into a ladies riding saddle,

So I can rest in peacebetween the two things I love

In Memory of Beza Wood

Departed this life Nov. 2, 1837

Aged 45 yrs.

Here lies one Wood Enclosed in wood

One Wood Within another.

The outer wood Is very good: We cannot praise The other.

When the great judgement day arrives and Joshua Fenton Newton does not emerge from this hole,

you will know that someone made a mistakeand buried me in the wrong hole.

From La Pointe, Wis.

To the Memory of Abraham Beaulieu

Born 15 September 1822

Accidentally shot 4th April 1844

As a mark of affection from his brother.

From Burlington Vt.
She lived with her husband fifty years

And died in the confident hope of a better life.

Here lies my wife:

Here let her lie!

Now she's at rest

And so am I.

Here Lies Mary Smith

Silent At Last
