Transcription (German, as read)

"Blasius Schlötzer, Bürger und Ziegler allhier, ein Wittwer, wurde copulirt mit [Jungfrau?] Barbara Knoll, jüngster Tochter des Christian David Knoll, Viehhändler[?] und Schneider-Meister dahier, jungfräulichen Standes, nach dreimaliger Proclamation den siebenten [doubtful] (7.) December in hiesiger Kirche."

[Doubtful: the trade word ("Vieh-händler" / "Vich-händler"; one 26 October re-check read "[Häusler?]"); the word before Barbara ("Frau", "Jgfr." or "Jungfrau"); the date word. The groom's surname also read "Schlotzer" and "Schölzer" in this entry; the baptisms write "Schlötzer".]

English translation

Blasius Schlötzer, citizen and brickmaker here, a widower, was married to [the maiden?] Barbara Knoll, youngest daughter of Christian David Knoll, cattle dealer [?] and master tailor here, of virgin status, after three proclamations, on the seventh (7th) of December in the church here.

Notes. The year 1824 is from the headings on Bild 209 (one 1823 entry, then "1824." with entry 1; entries 1–12 of 1824 run to Bild 213). Barbara as Johann Georg Knoll's younger sister: POSSIBLE (the 1830 entry calls Georg "only son", which does not exclude sisters; her baptism is not found). Blasius was a widower: his wife Eva Barbara had been buried on 1 October 1824 (212123 Bild 99–100). Image to save: Bild 213, right page, no. 12 (p. 421), and Bild 209 (headings 1823/1824).
