Bio

In almost any cemetery there are stones with old and odd inscriptions. Mt. Hope [Norwich, Chenango Co., NY] is no exception to the rule and here and there amongst the silent messengers that speak of the departed are inscriptions which date back early in the century. Two standing side by side read as follows: In memory of Patty wife of Benjamin Palmer who departed this life August 30 A.D. 1818 in the 39th year of her age. Behold my friends as you pass by, As You are now so once was I. As I am now you all must be prepare for death & follow me. In Memory of Betsey wife of Benjamin Palmer who died April 10 1822 in the 42 year of her age. Consigned to dust my body lies Till earths last dawn shall bid it rise. Then with the saints arise & sing Grave where's thy victory Death where's thy sting.
