Memorial Inscription
Here Rest The Remains
of
MARY ANN BURNET,
Fourth Daughter of the late
Provost Gabriel Richardson,
And Wife of John Burnet
Wine Merchant Dumfries,
Born May 12th MDCCXCVIII,
Died on the fourth of October
MDCCCXXXIV.
"I take away from thee the desire of
thine eyes with a stroke: - I am the Lord." Ezek: XXIV.112
She was thrown out of a gig, which mournful accident caused her death, when in the meridian of womanhood, on the 4th of Oct 1834; hence the quotation from Scripture which was placed on the monument by her sorrowing husband, "I take away from thee the desire of thine eyes with a stroke." The Courier, in commenting upon the sad accident, says: "We are not aware of a single occurrence since the fearful pestilence (of cholera) visited our shores that has cast a deeper gloom over the town of Dumfries than the sudden, violent, and much-lamented death of Mrs. John Burnet.112
