The rounded summit of the vault is crowned with a freestone table, bearing a rude representation of the family arms, (on a marble plate inserted in the stone), and the following inscription in capitals:— HERE LYETH THE BODY OF THE HONOURABLE GURDON SALTONSTALL, ESQUIRE GOVERNOUR OF CONNECTICUT WHO DIED SEPTEMBER THE 20th. IN THE 59th. YEAR OF HIS AGE . 1724. A considerable number of the descendants of the Governor have been gathered into this receptacle. His oldest son, Capt. Roswell Saltonstall, was here interred in 1738, and the youngest of his children, (except one that died an infant), the Hon. Gurdon Saltonstall, a Brigadier General of the Revolution, was laid here in 1785. Winthrop Saltonstall, Esq., a son of the last named, and Register of the Court of Admiralty during the Revolutionary War, was also deposited here in 1811.
