I found this stone almost hidden near some trees. It's almost a bright blue--with the lillies scrolling down both sides and the Deaths Head Angel in the center, with eyes closed. (The stone itself could be a light-colored shale--I'd never seen one like it before or since.) The epitaph reads:

"Here lies Inter'd
the Body of Mr.
Ionathan Nutting
Deceafed Octo'r
the 15th 1731, in
the 35th year of
his Age."

(Note the "I" for "J" and long "s".)
