Tuesday, November 17.--One was relating a remarkable story, which I thought worthy
to be remembered. Two years ago, a gentleman of large fortune in Kent dreamed that he
was walking through the churchyard and saw a new monument with the following inscription:
He told his friends in the morning and was much affected; but the impression soon
wore off. But on that day he did depart, and a stone was erected with that very inscription.

He told his friends in the morning and was much affected; but the impression soon
wore off. But on that day he did depart, and a stone was erected with that very inscription.
