Tombchest 1718. In memory of Humphry Iew who died in 1718. Slate rubble chest and
rectangular slate lid. Marginal inscription with verse in central rectangular panel.
Inscribed in upper and lower case lettering with serifs. Verse:
Stay passenger, who ere thou be
Let this my death admonish thee
For strength and youth I was in prime
and yet cut of in the midst of time
(by accident) the boisterous sea
I to my grave was sent that way
& when death doth come to thee
Even as I am so shalt thou be
