Same as for previous image, but this is the negative version. Gravestone of Mordechai Sprinzen, son of Avraham Yechiel Michal, died Feb. 27, 1910, aged 67.I believe the Hebrew word in the middle is "sofer," for scribe. (Other records show he was a "rabbi"and a "talmadmaker.") I would like to know what the Hebrew description says at the top, under "Peh Nun"and if I am missing anything else. The 2nd last line of Hebrew is very faint. I presume it is his Hebrew date of death in Adar? See previous uploaded image. Thank you.
