- Sacred to the memory of Sophia Margaret Eliza the affectionate wife of Charles Edward Eckersall, who departed this life at Ootacamund on the 13th November 1849, aged 29 years, 2 months and 7 days. "Blessed are the dead, proclaimed a voice above, Who died in Christ, abiding in his love, They rest from labour in the peaceful tomb, They rise to glory in the world to come, Swift was the flight and short the road, She closed her eyes to see her God."
