Additional Description: In memory of Thomas Cellar, who departed this life April 6, 1817, aged 75 years. He was exemplary as a friend and affectionate as a relative, and, for many years, fulfilled the office of a Ruling Elder in the Presbyterian Church, with credit and usefulness.
No more the weary Pilgrim mourns, / No more affliction wrings his heart; / The unfettered soul to God returns / Forever he and anguish part. / Receive, O Earth his faded form, / In thy cold bosom let it lie; / Safe let it rest from every storm / Soon must it rise, no more to die.
