STTMo Charlotte Amelia BAKER daughter of William Baker Esqr of Bayfordbury

And of Sophia, his wife, who died January 16^th 1836, aged fifty years in her life. She was eminently distinguished by the desire of devoting her time and talents to works of benevolence and filial duty; and yet, in her death, this was her humble cry, “a broken and contrite heart o god! Thou wilt not despise”.
