41853312151Sacred to the memory of John Peter Allix Esq of Swaffham Prior House, in this town Son of Charles Allix Esq of the same place & of Catherine daughter of Thomas Green DD Bishop of Ely. He was grandson of Peter Allix DD Dean of Ely Great grandson of the learned Peter Allix, the first of the family who settled in England, where he took refuge from persecution for his attachment to the Protestant religion. They who were acquainted with the virtues of the deceased, require not the testimony of a monumental inscription and they who were strangers to him will hardly receive from it a due notion of his worth. Suffice it then to say, that he was a true Christian, both in prin- ciple and in practice. That he was a dutiful son, an affectionate husband a kind father, and a faithful friend, that neither his charity to the poor, nor his hospitality to his equals, had any other limit, than in the means which he possessed of gratifying the benevolence of his heart. He was born Nov 8th 1749 & died May 15th 1807.
