"THOMAS STEWART" in block letters = top line

?? 2nd. line  ( could be "Midlothian" where he was born) But it may be something else & could be crucial information.....

Oops - apologies - I uploaded a copywrited image - I'm sorry!

Hi, I think it's 183- (possibly 1835) - 1920. Would that be year of birth you have.

I agree with 1835 - 1920.
(Slightly easier to see with the image converted to negative.)
