Notes:

"He turned out to be meanly and corruptly dispositioned - indolent, dissipated, improvident, a whoremonger. So vilely did he behave, and such was the unconscionableness of his neglect of his family, that his wife sought her greatest good in an effort of dissolve or dissever the nuptial tie that bound her to him - it was dissolved - they were disunited by decree of divorce." What became of him is unknown, "only that he is said to have gone to Vermont."

GS Inscription: "I have no more pain, to die is gain."

"She was pretty smart, but perhaps not to be credited with absolute faultlessness. After the disunity of herself and her husband, she lived hereabout (Monson, MA) til 1846; then went to Attica, NY. There, soon after going, she had a severe attach of rheumatism, gout, or some analogical disease that reduced her to a condition of extreme decrepitude and helplessness. This chronic and inveterate ail, after years of endurance, and of much almost intolerable suffering by her, carried her off. She died in Attica."
