Inscription
Here lies the dust of James Honyman
of venerable and ever worthy memory for a faithful ministry of near fifty years in the Episcopal Church of this town, which by define influence on his labors has flourished and exceedingly increased.

He was of a respectable family in Scotland, an excellent scholar, a sound divine and accomplished gentleman. A strong asserter of the doctrines and discipline of the Church of England, with the arm of charity, embraced Hall since they are followers of Christ.

Happy and his relative station of life, the duties of which he sustained and discharged in a laudable and exemplary manner.

Blessed with an excellent and very vigorous constitution, which he made subservient to the various duties of a numerous Parish, until a paralytic disorder, interrupted him in the pulpit, and in two years, without having impaired his understanding, cut short, the thread of life on July 2nd. 1750.
