The info above was taken from a page that said this was from Prosperity. According to the book Burials in the Upper Ten Mile Cemetery/Prosperity Cemetery by Greg R. Dunn, there are two adjacent cemeteries at Prosperity Presbyterian Church, and these graves are in the Upper Ten Mile Cemetery which is older)

Caution. The subscriber is under the painful necessity of cautioning the public against trusting his wife Elizabeth Wolfe, late Elizabeth Smith, of Morris Township. She had previous to this time absented herself and threatened to involve me in debt and to get as much on my credit as possible, whether she stood in need of it or not. Notwithstanding her improper conduct I looked over it and restored her to my house and protection - but now finding that nothing else will do, I am compelled to publish to the world that I shall refuse to pay any debts she may contract in future unless compelled by law, especially while she continues in her present unlawful and unbecoming course. /s/ Christopher Wolfe, Morris township.
