Hey Bill, you might have noticed that all the original pics are gone from the original thread. This is why i like to encourage everyone to post directly to this forum instead of using things like photobucket or the like.
Maybe you could post some new photos of it here for future reference, since i am hopeful that it will be a very long time before you actually bequeath it to me.

I do, in fact, agree. I probably didn't explain myself adequately

Yes, I also think that the first word in the plate is Gral., which, as you very well said, is not only the Spanish abbreviation for "General", but is also pronounced with the "h" English sound when at the beginning of a word. So, I repeat, in that we agree. I only wanted to clarify that in "canonic" Spanish, even in that time (if we keep the hypothesis of late 19th c.), to use "Jral." would have been considered an spelling mistake... or maybe a local variation

Best,

Marc
