a man of wisdom, respected at the city gate,
knowing the Book and declaring what is right,
fearing God from his young days, blameless and upright
in all his actions. He was our father,
the dear, the Chaver Rabbi Menachem, son of
Kalonimos, syndic and representative [of our congregation], gone
to Heaven at a good old age, the day
5th, 24th, and buried with great honour,
day 1st, 27th Nissan 648, in accordance with the little count.
May his soul be bound in the bundle of life.

2. Here lies
buried a wise man known in the gates,
knows the book and speaks the truth,
God-fearing since his youth,
upright and honest in all of his deeds,

Reb Kalonymos or Kalonymus ?

by the abbreviated era May his soul be bound in the bond of life.

4. A wise and well known man, learned and truthful, feared G-d from his
youth, honest and upright in all his dealings, no other than our dear
father, the member (friend), Rabi [not Rabbi, DL] Menachem son of
Klonimus Pissi (Fissi, Fisi, Pisi, Pihi, Fihi???--hard to tell) was
called to heaven at a goodly age Thursday 24 of Nissan and was buried
with great honor on Sunday 27 of Nissan 5645 (1885)

Notes on the translations:
· They can't even agree on a date (1888 was 5648, so I suspect that is the correct date, but 27 Nissan was a Sunday in both years)
· Two say he was a Rabbi, one expressly says he was not (so what's a Rabi?).
· In English, “knows books” has a very different connotation than “knows the Book.”
