This headstone is in remarkable condition, even if it wasn't necessarily placed back in 1866. It's nearly square, longer in height than in width, 2 feet-ish by 2 feet-ish. The anchor at the top isn't difficult to make out, and a very steady hand produced this inscription:

In Memory of
Hiram Walker
who departed this life June 17th
1866

Aged 18 years 3 months & 24 days.

Go home dear friends
And dry those tears
I must lie here
Until Christ appears
Date of Death: 6/17/1866
