Inscription  Sacred to the Memory of George Palmer, Esquire. This tablet is erected to the memory of one of the best husbands, by his afflicted widow. No man possessed a more kind or benevolent heart. In manners plain, in council wise, in judgment upright, in piety and charity unostentatious; In all the relations of husband, father and friend, exemplary and beloved. He departed this life at Purneah, September 10th, 1840, leaving, as the noblest monument to his memory and the richest legacy to his wife and children, the imperishable record of a good name. ""Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord"" - Rev. xiv. 13.
