Thanks to mmogno - here is the second half of the record.

... and he presented a female child born on said day, month and year at 1 AM to Maddalena Paolella [daughter of deceased Filippo], age 35, farmer, his legitimate wife, in the house in which they lived in Rione Porta, and to [this child] was given the name CATERINA.
At this declaration and presentation were present [as witnesses] Angelo Labaguara [son] of deceased Francesco, 48 farmer; and Nicola del Vecchio [son] of deceased Filippo, 30, farmer; both residing in the town.
After reading the act to all the participants only the declarant signed with the official as the others did not know how to write.
