Yet another reading of this cemetery it differs somewhat from the other
readings. However this version contains the text copied from the stones! So
perhaps it's the best yet.

year of his age. (Also footstone - J.B.B.) 

2. Sacred to the memory of Betsey, wife of Jabez Burrows, who died June 10th,
1838 in the 65th year of her age. "Her children rise up and call her blessed
