Bitteswell churchyard, Leicestershire

Inscription

Here lieth the Body of John Howcutt Who departed this Life the 10th of May 1769 Aged 60 Years.

O cruel Death that would no longer spare

A tender Father and a friend sincere

Great is the loss to those he left behind

But he we hope Eternal joys may find.
