Excerpt from Record of Inscriptions in the Cemetery and Building of the Unitarian: Formerly Denominated the Independent Church, Archdale Street, Charleston, From 1777-1860

"Most dear is it to us to think, that we shall lie down in our flower-crowned Cemetery, with some simple, modest. Christian inscription above us, with those hanging branches gently and whisperingly waving their requiems over our heads; while the music and the prayers, which we once loved, shall come and speak to our mouldering frames, of eternal life and eternal progress, in the Christian's promised Heaven." Extract from Dr. Gilman's Dedication Sermon, April 2nd, 1854.
