By

MARGARET ELLES

Chapleshade, in memory of her

husband

JOHN BATCHELOR

who died 4th July 1803

aged 35 years

and of their children

Viz

AGNES, ELIZABETH, JAMES

HELEN, JAMES and JEAN

who all died in infancy.

The grave dissolves each social tie

And tells us too that we must die

And then corruption see

Happy they are whose hopes do rise 

High as the honours of the skies

Where joys immortal be.
