The saying reads: Friends nor Physicians could not save. / This mortal body from the grave, / Nor can the grave confine it here, / When Christ in judgment doth appear.
The saying reads: My flesh shall slumber in the ground / Till the last Trumpets joyful sound / Then burst the chains with sweet surprise / And in my Saviours image rise
The saying reads: Friends nor physicians could not save / Their mortal bodies from the Grave; / Nor can the Grave confine them here, When Christ shall bid them to appear.
The stone reads: Wm. McBain / 37th Regiment of Foot / Granted / W1/2 Lot 20 Conc. XI - 1818 / His Wife Jane McIndoo / Cavan Pioneers
The 37th Regiment of Foot was a regiment of the British Military, drawn from Ireland, and brought to Canada to assist the British side in the War of 1812. After their service ended a very few of the soldiers were given permission to marry and granted plots of land so that they could stay and settle the area. William McBain was one of those lucky soldiers.
