A precious one from us is gone
A voice we loved is stilled.
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.

(Most of the inscription is becoming unreadable. The inscription at the bottom is now completely unreadable – Many years ago I was able to obtain the inscription.)

God in his kingdom has recalled
The Indian lass Lacy Ann
And tho’ the body molders here
The soul is safe in heaven
