In the church400. (Mural north side of nave) Sacred to the memory of Edward COLEMAN Esquire who was born in this Parish 28 June 1765 and died at the Royal Veterinary College, London 14 July 1839. In early life after studying under the celebrated John Hunter he entered the medical profession and in 1794 was elected Professor of the Royal Veterinary College, an institution which by his scientific researches and mental energies attained a degree of usefulness and celebrity that exceeded the sanguine expectations of its distinguished founders. Under his fostering auspices the progress of the Veterinary art was such as qualified its practitioners to hold commissions in the Army and in 1797 he had himself the honor to be appointed Veterinary Surgeon General to the British Cavalry. The duties of which responsible situation he faithfully discharged with credit to himself and advantage to his country. His physiological investigations and the services he rendered to science caused him to be elected a Fellow of the Royal Society and a member of other British and foreign scientific associations. This tablet is erected by his surviving children in whose fondest and most grateful remembrance his parental affection and undeviating kindness will forever be most dearly cherished. Requiescat in pace
