Inscription

I
Have
Suffered

In Affectionate Remembrance of
Martha
the beloved wife of
Michael FISH of Dukinfield
who died May 25th 1870 aged 47 years.
Oh! yes. It is hard at the last separation,
To part with the mother who loves us so true,
The home and the heart feels a wide desolation,
At bidding our dear beloved mother adieu.
