Location: SE corner of the Upper Barracca Garden, Valletta, Malta

Type: Monument

Material: Stone

Description: Above the plinth is a rectangular block about 1.83 cm high, and 76 cm wide bearing an inscription, on three sides. Above is a stone urn similar to a Patriotic Fund vase without handles.

Note: Erected in Malta because the political situation in Naples at the time was too unstable for it to be erected there.
