    Any body make out this word?

    Still working the old 1870 house where we pulled out alot of iron. This one here has the word Pat's March on it and looking on google shows a old flat iron maker but can not locate this particlular handle. On the back side it has another word which I can not make out all the way. Any body have any ideas or, has a picture of this handle attached to some thing? Also, on the front, the last line, is that a date?? All guess welcome. Good hunting all.
