This marker has the floral trim that is common among zinc monuments. The main panel has the family name, "Deen", at the base, and this inscription:

Johnnie,

Son of
John &
Mattie Deen

Born
Feb. 14, 1877,
Died
July 9, 1878.

On the reverse, the year "1883" is on the base -- perhaps the year the monument was placed -- and this inscription is above:

Peace! Little
loving sleeper;
Close to thy
Saviour's side,
Housed
with thy tender
keeper,
safe - for the
Lord has died.

The other two panels feature a wreath of roses and a lamb.
