Erected to the Memory
of Colo Isaac Dodge who was
Born March 9th 1733, died June 27th 1785
In the 53d year of his age
And of Mrs Elisabeth, his wife who
Was born March 10th 1730 & died Sept 22d 1785
In the 56th year of her age
His mind was open, ardent, and enterprizing
He was a kind huƒban, a tender indulgent Father
In his houƒe he was Liberal & hoƒpitable
Faithful to his truƒt, upright in his intentions,
In his operations
Active, perƒevering and extenƒive;
By which he afforded
Employment and ƒubƒiƒtance
to the induƒtrious and the indigent;
Contributed to the benefit of the publick
And merited the Character of a
Uƒeful and valuable member of ƒociety
His Wife was moral,
thoughtfuls and ƒofar as her ƒlender health would permit
Attentive to the benefit & happineƒs
of her family.
Deeply affected by the death of her huƒband
And the increaƒing infirmities of her feeble conƒtitution,
She languiƒh'd and three months after him
Expir'd
Short was there ƒeperation, ƒoon rejoin'd
In the dark grave, to native duƒt conƒign'd
They ƒleep till death his human prey reƒtore,
And earth & ƒkies & time ƒhall be no more.
