A gravestone with wings and a face of an angel on the lunette. The inscription reads: "In Memory of Thomas Williams Esq; Who died Sept: 28, 1775 Aet 57. To each uthinking behing Heav'n a friend, Gives not the useless knowledge of its end; To man imparts it; but with such a view, As while he dreads it, makes him hope it too."
