See Image for the church itself. The tall memorial is for John McGlashan, who died at Millburn; Mary Ferrie his wife, who died at Renton; and their family, one of whom (Alexander McGlashan) was minister of the parish of Lanark for 25 years. The smaller memorial in the foreground bears the following text (from Longfellow): "There is no death. What seems so is transition. This life of mortal breath is but a suburb of the life Elysian, whose portal we call death."
