An acrostic poem spelling the name of the deceased Reuven.
……..died on Wednesday 12 Mar Heshvan in the year 5663
by the abbreviated era [12 November 1902]
May his soul be bound in the bond of everlasting life
Look at this honest son who even listened to his parents,
saw the good and the glory in life, was plucked
from us at the age of twenty years, his soul will
be a good advocate to his parents.
Translated by Sara Mages (smages@comcast.net)
