Sacred to the memory of WILLIAM CURZON,/ 4th. Son of Lord Scarsdale, late Capt. in the 69th. Ft. & D.A.A.G./ A Youth of fairest promise!/ Whose professional merit, amiable qualities, & private worth,/ Had distinguish'd Him as a Soldier, endear'd Him to his Family, Friends, & Comrades./ He enter'd the Army at the age of 16,/ Appointed to an Ensigney in the 9th. from the R. M. College,/ And having honorably served throughout the War in the Peninsular,/ And already bled in the cause of Nations,/ Fell alas! fighting with devoted gallantry,/ On that day of triumph & tears, which seal'd their Deliverance;/ Being slain in the Battle of Waterloo June 18th. 1815, in his 24th. year./ His Country will record His Name in the list of the Brave./ To preserve It on the Spot where its Remembrance will be most precious,/ This tablet is raised by his affectionate Parents,/ Who deploring His loss, with their surviving Children,/ Bow to the Divine Will & repose in the blessed belief,/ That He has exchang'd His Laurels, for a Crown of Glory,/ The Meed of His Virtues.
