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.
- He died at sea.
