Is someone able to take a look at the two files below that are part of one birth record for Andrea DiPersio and tranlate them for me? The Part 2 has a notation on the right hand side I believe about marriage??? Thank you!
On September 24th, 1887, at 4:10 p.m., in the Town House of Rosciano.

Mattia Di Bartolomeo, 60 years old, peasant, and Giuseppe D'Andrea, 70 years old, peasant, both residing in this Commune, were witnesses of what above.

The annotation is about his marriage, but I have difficulties in reading it. It seems to me that the marriage took place in Rosciano.
