Here lies
The sound of weeping and mourning is being heard from all directions, the sun darkened at noon
Woe to him, all who knew cry for him, the yeshiva student young in years, a man who followed the righteous ways, was benevolent and trustworthy, was engaged in charitable work all of his days, was respected and just, our teacher Asher Enshil son of our teacher
Chaim [Haim] May his light shine died 8 Adar 5667 [22 February 1907]
May his soul be bound in the bond of everlasting life
