SACRED
TO THE MEMORY OF
PHILIP A. BRANDON
BORN
SEP^T. 11^TH, 1841.
DIED

March 6^TH, 1859
_______

A youth of Noble and Generous nature:
Manly, Truthful and kind:
Affliction developed a gentleness
and fortitude made sublime by
his steady repose on God.

Death heeds not affections tears:
Then wherefore should I weep:
He cannot return to me,
but I can go to him.
