Notes "Age about 29 years." Surname spelled variously COLEMAN and COLMAN. Verse on footstone: Kind Traveller make here a stop/ And thy own End consider/ Consider thou art born to Dye/ And cannot live for ever/ And for Eternall happiness/ In health thy selfe Prepare/ or here lyes one that was cut dow_/ n s strength Death would not spare."
