Thy word is a Lamp Psalm XIX
Beneath this stone are deposited the
mortal remains of the Revd John
Clarke who departed this life the
1st day of Dec 1820 aged 76 years
He laboured above half of Cavan in the
Ministry of the Church of
England 44 years of which he
was rector of this Parish
A man of simple and unaffected
manner of whom it may be justly
said that he never lost a friend
or made a foe
This tomb has been erected as a
tribute of grateful affection to a
kind and indulgent parent by
his son Robert Clarke
