 wife of Floris Blom, Koopman and Secretary of the Govern- 

 ment of Ceylon. Born in Tayouan, in the Island of Formosa,

 this tombstone is : Parti : au 1 de ... a trois faucons ess. au 

 2 de ... a trois los. surm. d'une croix latine.

The arms of Floris Blom (Plate 79) in nowise resemble 

 these arms, so that the two stones in L.Z., Plate 5, have 

 been accidentally placed beside, and have no relation to, each 

 other. The arms in the dexter impalement, however, closely 

 resemble those on the dexter shield in Plate 51, L.Z.
