247.

Golany. It happened in the city of Przasnysz on the twenty-fifth of July / sixth of August, in the year one-thousand eight-hundred eighty-two, at one o’clock in the afternoon. There appeared Teodor Niedziałkowski, a farmer in Golany, thirty-seven years of age, in the presence of Józef Krzywkowski, a farmer in Golany, twenty-nine years of age, and Franciszek Rykowski, the Church Sexton in Przasnysz, forty years of age and he showed us a child of the male sex, born in Golany on the nineteenth day / thirty-first day of July of this year at three o’clock in the morning, of his lawful wife Wiktoria née Długołęcka, thirty-three years of age. To this child at Holy Baptism performed on this day was given the name Władysław, and the Godparents were Józef Krzywkowski and Marianna his wife. This document was read aloud to the declarants and to the witnesses who are unable to write and was signed by us. –
Pastor of the Przasnysz Parish. – Rev[erend] S[tanisław] Czapliński

This is a record of the same event I reported previously, but this record was written in a different book, and this record is written in Polish rather than Russian.

With this record, I was able to correct a few errors in my original translation: the surnames of the witnesses and the occupation of the second witness. This record also explains why so many baptisms were witnessed by this man, Franciszek Rykowski. He was the Church Sexton.
