To the memory of John Adie,
late master and owner of the sloop
Helens of Limekilns, parish of
Dumfarline county of Fife,
Scotland, who departed this life on
the 21st day of October in
the year of our lord 1882, and
has left 7 children to lament his loss,
in the 48th year of his age.
A few short years of evil past
we reach that happy shore
Where death divided friends at last
Shall meet to part no more.
