    bearing an Irish inscription but I have never seen it.
    There are also a selection of verses written on tombstones one being:-
    While here within the silent tomb
    Thy much loved form we lay
    While yet in youth and beauty's bloom
    To slumber in the clay
    We weep indeed that thou are dead
    Yet hope to meet in Heaven,
    And hope that He whose Blood was shed,
    Has all thy sins forgiven.

    In sad and loving memory of Catherine Goulding who fell asleep on the 24th December 1837 aged 27 years.
