"To John Baptist Bontus,
Knight of the Silvestrians,
Consultant of Sacred and Civil Law,
Who for 46 years was second in charge of the
acts of settling subsidiary matters.
He lived piously, justly, and mercifully.
Died on the 4th day before the Ides of May in the year 1862, aged 68.
Margarita Giommei, heir according to the will."
