For Hanna Persdotter

from Member of Parliament
Ola Svensson
presented on her [actually, it looks like "his" but that doesn't make sense] birthday 28 [?] 1873.

In memory of 2nd[?] and 8 June 1873.
Take up and read:
Isaiah [or maybe Ezra?] 8:18, Exodus 3:4-5, Psalms 8:3-4

Thank you for help!
But I wonder if it was a church leader at time of her communion

He might have been, of course, but the writing definitely says "Riksdagsman",  Member of Parliament.

There was an Ola Svensson representing the peasants of Färs and Frosta härader at the Riksdag 1859-60 where he was deputy speaker in the peasants' estate. That fits geographically. I haven't found more information about him, though. If that's the Ola Svensson in question, he can't have been a clergyman.
