Title from item.
Text from item: In memory of two children of Mr. Nehemiah & Mrs. Susan Bancroft, viz. Susa died 24th Aug 1796. Aged 1 year 8 months & 3 days. Anna died 5th April 1800. Aged 19 days. So fades the lovely blooming flower, Frail smiling solace of an hour, So soon our transient comforts fly, And pleasure only blooms to die.
Design note: double headstone urns on both.
