Inscription. Almighty God, we commend into thy hands the souls of our brothers and sisters departed. Having been faithful in peace and in war to the principles upon which this nation is founded. And ever mindful to keep her a nation under God. We pray thee to grant them a place in thy kingdom, where they may rest from their earthly labors and serve thee in new and glorious ways. To the honor and praise of thy holy name. Amen.
