This happened in the church-owned village of Szwelice on twenty-first day of May / second day of June in the year one thousand eight-hundred thirty-eight at the hour of ten in the morning.

At Holy Baptism performed on this day, the child was given the name Józefa and the Godparents were the afore-mentioned Jan Mossakowski and Anna Sliwowska.
