    Underneath this stone doth lie,
    The remains of that noble Boy,
    Who by his deeds in action brave
    In Wexford his body was brought
    to the Earth,
    Now each christian for him thou
    pray
    And to heaven direct his way,
    He on his oath that day in truth
    did die,
    It's there he fought most manfully,
    John Moore - son to James Moore and
    Margret White of Robinstown.
    Who was killed by the Army on 11th July
    1793 aged 22 years.
    Lord have mercy on his soul.
    Also his sister Anastacia Wadden,
    alias Moore
    Depd. this life Sept 1,811. Aged 60 years.
