Notes: 

This stone was brought indoors for safe-keeping in 1989. It is a paimpsest with part of an earlier Ins. running across the top of the stone. It was originally a H.S.. It is now preserved on top of the Lynch tomb. It used to be set in the ground in a recumbent position opposite the oil tank. (Just beneath the kerbing which retains the grassed area of the graveyard). The top of the stone is rounded. The Ins. is carved in low false relief. The upper two lines are in a slightly smaller font.
