Sacred | to the memory | of | the Rev Edward Blakeslee | who departed this life | on the 15 of July 1797 | in the 31st year of his age | By this premature death his family | are deprived of a kind and affectionate | Husband Father and Brother | The Episcopal Church | of a zealous and faithful master | and the public | of a disinterested friend. The memory of the just is blessed Prov 10 7. The righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance Psalm 6.
