Stay on the path to collect the information needed for the final. You are looking for the Gravestone of a man whose surname is that of a marine mammal, think Henry Williamson if stuck!
Died Jan AB CDEF aged GH years. There is a particularly nice quote on the stone. "In the midst of life, we are in death".
