Howff Memorial 447

Inscription.

This stone was revised by John Small, School master in Dundee, and Isabell Gibson his spouse, to the memory of their son John Small, who died 24th of August 1777, aged 4 years.

The great Jehovah from above,

An Angel bright did send,

To fetch the little harmless dove,

To joys that me'er will end.
