Surname  Richardson    
Forename(s)  Thomas    
Year of Death  1834    
Inscription  Sacred to the memory of Thomas Richardson, Esq., of the Civil Service, Magistrate of the 24 Pergunnahs, and Superintendant of the Alipore Jail, who was unhappily murdered by the convicts under his charge, whilst engaged in the exercise of his official duty, on the 5th April 1834, Aetat. 34. Thus in the mysterious providence of the Almighty was cut off in the prime of life and in the midst of a career of usefulness, an officer distinguished in his public capacity by intelligence, integrity and honor. His character as a private individual is enshrined in the affectionate recollection of his friends and is cherished still more dearly in the heart of his afflicted widow, by whom this stone is erected.
