Here rests
in hope the body of
Col. James Barrett
who departed this life
April 11th, 1779, in the 69th year of his age.
_Sudden the summons came and quick the flight;
We trust to be with Christ in relms of light._
In public and private life he was courteous, benevolent,
and charitable. His fidelity, uprightness and
ability in various offices and employments, justly
procured him esteem. For many years he represented this
Town in General Court. He early stepped forward in
the contest with Britain and distinguished himself in the
cause of America. His warm attachment to and careful
practice of the religion of Christ compleated his worth as
a Christian and with his other virtues preserve his memory
and keep it with that of the just which is blest.
