LEWIS Son of JAMES and MARY
BRIERLEY, of Valley Mill, who died
Oct 3, 1827, in the 15th Year of his Age
Although once beneath the ground his corps was laid
For use of surgeons it was thence convey'd.
Vain was the scheme to hide the impious theft
The body taken, shroud and coffin left.
Ye wretches who pursue this barbrous trade
Your carcases, in turn may be convey'd,
Like his, to some unfeeling surgeon's room.
How can they justly meet a better doom.
MARY Wife of the above mentioned
JAMES BRIERLEY, who died April
1828, in the 43rd Year of her Age
