EPITAPH ON JOHN ADAMS, OF SOUTHWELL,
A CARRIER, WHO DIED OF DRUNKENNESS.
John Adams lies here, of the parish of Southwell,A Carrier who carried his can to his mouth well;
2
He could carry no more—so was carried at last;
For the liquor he drank being too much for one,
He could not carry off;—so he's now carri-on.
September, 1807.
