- Border
- A two-line border is discernible on the tympanum but it appears to morph into a three-line border in the tablet section. The wear and tear on the stone has rendered it difficult to clearly see. It does appear that there are illustrated panels to either side of the tablet.
- Remark
- The tympanum has four design elements. The oval face uses very primitive rudimentary eyes and a mouth. The two encircled stars to either side of the face are six armed. The corners has several rectangular shapes which appear to be part of the tympanum's background design. NOTE: Her maiden name is Perley
