Transcription (original language)
Die eodem [14. Martij] hat Bartol Brand zu [Linse?] eine Tochter taufen lassen, deren Gevattern gewesen: Johan Bodecker, Jf. Maria [Kiefer?], und Meinert Köhlers Frau, ist genannt Maria.
Translation (English)
On the same day [14 March 1654] Bartol Brand of [Linse?] had a daughter baptized; her sponsors were Johan Bodecker, Miss Maria [Kiefer?] and Meinert Köhler's wife; she was named Maria.
Notes
The place after "zu" is a short word beginning L; Linse fits the hand but is not confirmed. The 1653–1654 pages are in a pale, hasty hand. Grade: STATED for the words read; POSSIBLE that the father is Barthold Brand of Linse.
