English translation
Died [26] March, buried [28] March [1789] at 11 in the morning: Jacob Friedrich, child of Elias Büchele, shepherd; aged 10 days. Margin: "A 425".
Notes
The age fits the baptism of 15 March 1789 on the family page. A second original record naming Elias Büchele a shepherd at Hessigheim, independent of the 1787 baptism. The margin "A 425" differs from the baptism's "I, 420": a later volume or an updated reference (not resolved). No Büchele parent's death on Bild 10-24, 31, 34-36.
