Summary[edit]

Description
English: An untimely and meloncholy loss of life The inscription on this gravestone in Walkhampton churchyard reads: "SACRED to the memory of GEORGE GREY son of JOHN and ANN GREY of this Parish who died July 20th 1843 Aged 8 Years. Who being placed in charge of some Horses lost his way in a fog on Dartmoor, and after wandering for two days was found in a state of exhaustion and died soon after. The above is recorded with the hope of conveying a caution to others, lest they unhappily become the cause of a like untimely and meloncholy loss of life."
