Notes/Misc Details
NotesHebrew & English "Sacred to the memory of Mr. Moses Lopez Merchant, who suddenly quitted this transitory life, on the 6th April 1767, in the sixty-first year of his age He was a Gentleman in whom were united every Moral and Social Virtue, which prepared his mortal Part for the fruition of that glorious State, where the Pious and Virtuous receive the Reward of their good Actions."
