Thanks to Findagrave for information on his name. Notably, he was the son of Lewis Fry, who gave his name to the celebrated Fry Street up in Denton. Lewis himself is buried in Oakwood Cemetery, also in Denton.

Dearest one, thou hast

And our loss we

But 'tis God who hath
bereft us,
He can all our sorrows
heal.
