This one has the family name, "Dempsey", on the reverse plinth, with the organizational emblem above it. Note how crudely the dove, log, and tools are rendered, and how the sculptor spaced the text to accommodate the sawed-off limb to the left of the emblem.

On the front, a cross is above the limb from which the inscription scroll hangs, as this is a Catholic cemetery. The scroll is either creased or intended to be waving in the breeze, and it reads:

Patrick Dempsey

Died
June 12, 1898
Aged 43 Years

~~~~~

May his Soul rest in
peace.

~~~~~

A Native of Ireland.
