I had someone in my office translate it. The name is Muhammad Abduh Raboah? He could not be 100 percent sure? 1316AH=1898AD.

Hi Lew
I may confirm to you the validity of the translation, that you got

here below, the complete translation with some comments

2234 and little bit more far 9 (?)
I leave to your sagacity the understanding of those digits, I put a (?) because it's uncertain

MOHAMED ABD EL RAB'HO either a name containing one way to name "God" either RAB

SANA either YEAR

1316 (Hegira) either ± 1898 (Gregorian)

that's set, no more

best regards
