 August 2007 In memory of Josiah B Canfield who died Mar 28 1834 aged 24 yrs and 6 mo. Then rest there now in peace, the hallowed spot Where sleeps thy dust shall never be forgot Oft age, full oft affections tear shall lave The flower that blooms upon thy lowly grave But while thy memory thus we long shall love Thy spirit entered on its rest above Shall chant the song the ransomed only know Beside the stream where Heavenly waters flow. Orcutt, Rev. Samuel, History of the Old Town of Derby, Connecticut, 1642-1880, (Springfield, Massachusetts, Press of Springfield Printing Company, 1880) page 804 |
