A start:

Margaret Munro (Widow of Roderick Munro, Farm Grieve)

1936 October Tenth 8 h. [ 0 ] m. A.M. [        ], Alness

F

84 years

Alexander Cant, Cartwright (deceased) Margaret Cant, M.S. Gray (deceased)

[                                          ]

Helen Ann Urquhart, Daughter [17] High Street, [                     ]

                   
NB M.S. = Maiden Surname

There seems to be the name Munro added in different writing in the third line of the first column.

I doubt you can make it much clearer, but apparently Scotland's People can!  I've seen others on here with the same problem and the usual advice is to contact SP and ask for a clearer image, which they provide free of charge.

Hope this helps,
