Onchan MI - Fell

I ran into a little hiccup. LDS film 1559456 Item 7. It's the Monumental Inscriptions for the Onchan churchyard except the enty I was salivating to read, was in the OLD yard on page 18. They filmed only the odd pages! So I had to phone the British desk at Salt Lake City and they kindly read me the inscription on the stone from the book form of the Fam Hist Society's Monumental Inscription compilation.. but I took it in shorthand thinking of course the dates would conform to the dates in the burial index which they didn't.

But the main piece of information was that indeed, the occupants of J13 OLD yard page 18 ARE all "Beloved children of Wm J Fell and Catherine" and that he was "Captain" Wm Fell though not in the index under Fell or Fayle anyway, but commemorated on stone J13 with his children and 'relict' . Maybe he's filed with the C's for "Capt".

So. Could some kind soul please look up the full J13 stone inscription on page 18 OLD Onchan yard and transcribe for me what it says? In the index you could just look up Fell. My apologies to the nice man who read me the inscription. I should have had him fax it.
