It's either 2 or 3 records blended together. It's got the bleed through from the baptism on the back side, a child named Gaspar. You can see the backwards G. That ink appears to be black (or gray) depending on the computer monitor. Rick thinks that the record on the left wasn't dry when the book was closed, so he thinks there may be an impression from the left page on that record. It would be a mirror image so the writing would be backwards. I do see a slant to the left and Rick did point out a word here or there to me, but I just don't see it. So if the left side was slightly wet, it could have left a faint impression. And then is the priest wrote a record there, then that's 3 records, making it extremely difficult to read. I'd just go hire Joao Ventura to extract this record so you have the information on your ancestor.
