Translation
By Ḍbʿt son of {Mrʾ} son of Wdʾl and he grieved ----

Interpretation

Commentary
The name mrʾ seems to have been added later. The author has added a b below the name presumably to correct his mistake and continue the genealogy but he forgot to inscribe a n. There are possibly other letters after the word wgm.
