Caribbean Family History

To
the memory of
ROBERT PEDDIE
Surgeon
native of KELSO in ROXBURGHSHIRE N.B.
who died in this Island
on the XVI day of November AD MDCCCXLI
at the age of XLI years
"This tablet
is consecrated by the sympathies of
a few of his friends:
in life they esteemed him
as well for
his faithful discharge of his public duties
as a member of the Legislature
and as a magistrate
as for
his exemplary conduct in all the relations
of professional and domestic intercourse;
and now that he has departed,
they desire to record their feelings
of sorrow and respect
that these may not pass away with
their own fleeting existance."
