A double stone. On the right side – A plant of delight, surely he is the
unfortunate, the upright, honest and praised yeshiva student ,
all who know him will carry in lamentation, they will shout
bitterly for he died in his youth, was loyal, pious, and innocent,
a friend to the righteous, the prominent young man, the
pious our teacher Moshe Gershon son of our teacher Yosef
[Joseph] May his light shine died with a good name 20
Adar 5634 [9 March 1874] by the abbreviated era
On the left side - Here lies a man upright and honest who followed
the commandments and
studied under the sages
, supported the poor with
kindness, held the hands of those who studied the Torah according to his capability,
was charitable and benevolence , surely he is the pious scholar our teacher
and rabbi Yakov [Jacob] son of Reb Menachem of blessed memory
died 5 Tishrei [ the remainder is covered by a tree trunk]
