Gone in a fatal moment hence.
Mrs.
SARAH
wife of
Lieut. Leonard Carleton
died Nov. 23, 1821
Æt. 23.
Lo! where this silent marble weeps
A friend, a wife, a mother sleeps
A heart within whose sacred cell
The peaceful vitues lov'd to dwell
Sudden her death with many a groan
In giving life she lost her own.
