    • Epitaphs In the POWDER HOUSE GRAVE-YARD,
      West Bridgewater, Massachusetts
      In memory of Capt. Josiah Snell, he died Aug. ye 20th, 1785 in ye 85th year of his age.
      Here in this gloomy nursery of the dead,
      A neighbor good, a faithful friend is laid;
      Just, peaceful, careful, punctual and sincere,
      A father kind, a tender husband dear.
