Reverse description A tall classical monument in high relief dominates the field, surmounted by a standing figure of Lady Justice. Three miniature portrait busts of clergymen are set into niches on the monument's face, with an inscribed tablet below bearing the dedicatory legend. At the base of the monument, four small figures in relief depict scenes of emancipated life. The circular legend runs along the rim, and the maker's signature 'DAVIS. BIRM.' appears in the lower exergue on a scroll.
