However, given the fact that most people in Ossy have an IQ of about 20 (roughly that of a three month old parrot) then I realise that reading and writing is an exercise beyond them; so possibly someone from Church or Accy could venture up beyond the lamp to check the said inscriptions.
The unveiling of the benches was photographed, and published in the press.
If only that unfortunate habit hadn't affected your eyesight, you could have run your one good beady-eye over said photographs, and have perhaps deciphered what was written on the plaques yourself.

It would be easier for him to walk along the bottom path in the park on his travels and read what I assume to be the same plaque
