[174] of David Patterson, a young merchant of Boston, who died at sea in 1834:--

Erected by his commercial friends and associates as a memorial of their affection and respect for his elevated moral and religious character.

He sleeps beneath the blue lone sea,
He lies where pearls the deep.
He was the loved of all, yet none
O'er his low bed may weep.

David Patterson.
