Transcription on the stone reads:

Here lies the Body of
Paul Titcomb son of
Jon & Mary Titcomb
Died 26 July 1773
in the 19th Year of his Age.

You that paƒs by this place may think on me
For as you are so once you did me see
What I am now will quickly be your Doom
My houƒe is straight but by my side there's room
And if your duƒt should fall onto my Grave
Tis no great matter every man should have
the very duƒt and neither new nor more
For he that made it keeps it all in store.
