      Inscription

      In memory of
      Mr. GIDEON BRADFORD
      who
      DIED April 5
      1805
      aged 52 years
      "Down the mansions of the silent dead,
      Behold the husband, parent, friend is fled.
      His generous heart was prompt at pitty's call.
      He ever felt and prayed and wept for all,
      Lending redeeming love, he spent his days,
      And his last dying accents uttered praise."
