He was clearly very loved

I know this isn’t the norm here…. but I’ve been intrigued by a stone in the backyard of a house near where I live. At first I thought maybe it was for Halloween, then maybe for a pet, but after getting a picture of it (best I could over the fence without being too intrusive) I believe it’s a young child. I’m having trouble clearly reading the stone (it looks like 1372??). This stone has not moved in all the time I’ve lived here. The first houses were constructed on the streets where this stone is, which would have been the 1810’s. I can’t find anything indicating a grave is located here, but across the street is the business building of the original headstone maker/engraver for the city. I don’t know if the two things are connected or not. I would like to do some genealogy research on the names, but I’m having trouble reading the stone.

Can anyone help me read this stone? This is what I think I’m seeing:

So sad to see this cemetery. Probably one of the most overgrown I’ve ever seen. We are on travel otherwise I would definitely adopt this one and try and restore.

Came to visit a friend lost at age 13. Life was too difficult for him to go on and he ended his much too early.

Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis, Indiana, takes on a particularly somber character under an overcast spring sky. Without the distraction of sunlight, the cemetery’s landscape and historical features appear more defined—stone markers, mausoleums, and tree-lined roads stand out. The subdued light draws attention to the materials and forms that define this 555-acre space, which was shaped in the 19th century as both a burial ground and a public park.
