"Died
October 23, 1866
Aged 54 years 3 months 16 days
[Inscription]
"Rev. Jacob Bachtel of Parkersburg Conference, converted and joined the U. B. Church 1832, licensed to preach 1833, received into the Virginia Conference 1834 and continued in the active ministry for a period of nearly 33 years. A profound thinker, wise counselor and good preacher and many have been led to Jesus through his labors. Farewell, We Cherish Thy Memory"
[Inscription]
"He was a devoted husband, a kind parent and consistant Christian. His example pure and just: his conversation chaste. In trials he could say truly ‘None of these things move me, neither I count my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy and the minestry which I have received of the Lord Jesus.’ ‘My flesh shall rest in hope.’ "
