CAPT.
SAMUEL N. BRUSH
Born Nov. 2d, 1819;
Died Nov. 1st 1855.
-----
He knew that death was near yet feared not to die
Hath a trust in God he bid adieu to earth;
death came, and closed his suffering here.

-----
A widowed mothers only Child
is laid beneath this sod.
Though dust returns to dust again
His spirit is with God.
