Mr. & Mrs. Stone Senr Stature man short, woman tall and thin. Inhabited a small red house on the same side of the Street. There was attached to this an orchard containing apples and cherries and it was after the death of the old people much improved by his son James and converted into a pleasure and tea gardens at the time of the Brabourne Barracks were erected. This same James Stone now occupies it. Mi. Stone was rather of a blunt instrument, very uncouth in his dialect and ungenteel in his manners, although not a bad neighbour. He was not taught in the school of refinement, his discourse was not at all times purified from the dregs of immorality. He employed himself by daily labour and also about his own premises. He was the principal swine dispatcher. He was possessed of a keen appetite and could spin a tolerable long yarn. These were about that epoch when course was adopted to the manufactory of barley bread when the high price of provisions had intimated a great scarcity in England and other provinces. Mrs. Stone was a quiet but appeared an unhappy woman. She was subject to fits and was not of a sound mind. These were both buried at Mersham.
