On rear: At Church of Great Rissington : Mary dagt of Giles & Eliz Crips who died Feb 9, 1739 - “Who’d sue to live or for a long life pray / Where troubles are as constant as the day / In youth nor beauty there’s no trust / For I had both and yet am dust” | George Cambray who died June 17, 1740 aged 67 - “Whilst on this earth I did remain / My latter days were grief and pain / Full 15 years and something more / With pain I was afflicted sore / But now the Lord has set me free / From Grief and Pain and Misery”
