What is recorded here

Graveslab in Quin lies broken and nameless in the chancel of Quin Abbey church, its top left corner lost to time. It may have marked a canon, a noble visitor or a child buried in haste during a violent age. The absence of inscription does not diminish the dead person; it returns the story to imagination and mercy.
