  • Notes 
    • He died at sea.

      His gravestone has this poem (I guessed at two or three words that are hard to read):
      While kindred hearts shall gather [around]
      This memorial stone to weep
      For far away neath the briny deep
      He's sleeping death's dreamless sleep.

      Yes his body rests neath ocean's [waves]
      Which have o'er [mastered] man's control
      But we joy to think there's a power beyond
      And the Father keepeth his soul.
