For context, see Image, where this stone, with its plaque, is visible on the left. The text is legible, but is given here to make it easier to find (the first quotation is slight reshaping of 2 Timothy 4:7, and the second is from Shakespeare's "Antony and Cleopatra"): Burgh of Barrhead Maxton Memorial Committee James Maxton M.A. 1885–1946 Member of Parliament for Bridgeton 1922–1946 "He fought a good fight, he kept the faith" "A rarer spirit never did steer humanity"
