This zinc marker stands atop a piece of stone, and notably, the obelisk section is coming loose from the rest of the monument. It is typical of so many, with the standard issue floral patterns, and on the main panel is an open Holy Bible, with:

Mary M.
Johnson

Born Apr. 9, 1810
Died June 18, 1883,

Age
73 Y'rs 2 Mo's 9 D'ys

Below is "Our Mother." The second panel has a bouquet of lilies of the valley and a rose, with an epitaph, below:

Dear mother, with a reverent hand
This to thy memory given
While one by one thy household
band
God reunites in Heaven.

The third panel features two angels, bowing in prayer, on the obelisk, with:

Mary M.
Johnson,

Age 73 Y'rs
2 Mo's 9 D'ys

"At rest" is below. The fourth panel has the family name, "Johnson", on the plinth, and a single rose on the obelisk section. Above the family name is another epitaph:

Dear mother, in Earth's thorny
paths,
How long thy feet have trod!
To find at last this peaceful rest,
Safe in the arms of God.
