Here lies the modest Rabbi’s wife the righteous Mrs. Dreizel daughter of the genius
Rabbi the famous our teacher and rabbi Eliezer Shalom May the memory of the righteous be of a blessing in the world to come, head of the rabbinical court of the holy community of ? and Siedlce.
Died 15 of Shevat in the year 5655 by the abbreviated era [9 February 1895].
Our hearts are aching and our eyes darkened for the death of a religious woman, please see how sad we are no matter where we turn, tears stream like water from our eyes, her memory will not be forgotten because she acted with wisdom,
was engaged in good deeds, held the hands of the
poor and the passer-by with the cleverness and faith, supported the widows the poor and the orphans, a daughter of a good pious family, from a righteous ancestry, a woman of valor in her death, her place is among other mothers in the heavens, up above her soul will be brought before her ancestors who will testify of her good deeds, left behind five sons, good offspring, pious, righteous and wise students, ? daughters,
her good deeds will be approved..[the remainder is illegible]
