The gravestone of Thomas McLean is located in the Durham Cemetery (PD 01 in the Ritchie Cemetery Listings).
It reads:
"THOMAS
son of John & Janet McLean
who was drowned while bathing
10th Aug. 1840
In the 15th year of his age
What fond delusion holds us one and all
while midst our flowry schemes
we mortals fall and rise no more"
