Translation: Sacred to the memory of Elizabeth , wife of Thomas LOBB Esq , first born daughter of Thomas Chute Esq , who had as father Chaloner from the County of Hampshire , who , an Esquire in provincial counties , became Speaker {of the House of Commons} A man of practised virtue no less than a hero of his native land. She indeed , having received this virtue from her forefathers , if she did not increase it certainly made it her own , while all those to whom she could recommend it as daughter , wife and mother , played their parts. Here in brief may perhaps be seen how , a bequest having been left to her by her brother Thomas Leonard CHUTE , she enriched the estate of her husband , as beforehand it had been increased by her great dowry while it honoured all her virtues. On 27th September in the year of Our Lord 1725 she unhappily died in childbirth , leaving one son and two daughters engaged to be married. Unforgetting and grieving , her husband has placed this stone. There lie here also the remains of Thomas LOBB himself , he survived his wife by 39 years , in the beginning married here as a young man in 1720 at the end he died here an old man in 1764 , aged 72 , in whose memory for this final work of both honour and portrayal , his sad son has performed the office.
