| Surname | Cruttenden | | Forename(s) | George | | Rank or Title | Major | | Year of Death | 1822 | | Inscription | In memory of George Cruttenden, late Major in the Honorable E.I. Company's Bengal Army, whose long term of Military Service, fulfilled with every mark of good desert, was followed by an active part in civil life, pursued with equal talent and integrity. His Christian temper, and sound principles, his love for others, and his friendly dispositions, took their first course in the nearest circles of attachment, but they knew no limit; and he lived where his virtues found their just reward. This Monument, raised with emulous affection speaks for many. He died in Macao on the 23d of March 1822, Aged 54. |
