Pamela / the beloved wife of / Reuben Freeman / Who fell asleep July 21st 1892 / Aged 41 years

Sweet as a song that once consoled our pain, / But never will be sung to us again, / Is thy remembrance. Now the hour of rest / Hath come to thee. Sleep, darling; it is best.

Greater love has no man than this / that he lay down his life for his friend.
