Born 24th October 1877

"Come unto Me, ye weary, and I will give you rest."
Oh, blessed voice of Jesus, which comes to hearts opprest.
It tells of benediction, of pardon, grace, and peace ; of joy that hath no ending, of love which cannot cease.
This tablet has been erected, by a few loving friends.
J. Harry Waverley
