Whilst Valentia slate from Kerry is used in the Houses of Parliament for roofing, the proprietors of the Roman Catholic Cathedral at Killarney, within forty miles of Valentia, are importing slate from Wales, a distance of six hundred miles ..."

    Actually the memorial says 27 September 1775 ... Edit - And The Peerage thinks he died in 1832 ... www.thepeerage.com/p42087.htm#i420870

    Thomas Summerfield was promoted to Major in the 83rd Regiment "without purchase" in place of "Napper, deceased" in 1820/21. (Freemans Journal, 4 January 1821) Newspaper snippet includes the word "Brevet" about Summerfield. Hadn't come across that before. OED says brevet is "A former type of military commission conferred especially for outstanding service, by which an officer was promoted to a higher rank without the corresponding pay.
