This is the link to the downloaded image. Do you have the link to the original image? The handwriting isn't very good on this, and it helps me to able to go a page or two back and forward to look at similar handwriting to determine what some of the letters are. You can't navigate forward and back from this image.

Thank you. At first glance I thought it read that Carlo was "domiciled in Lecce" which wouldn't make sense given the birth occurred in Bova.

Thanks for clarifying.
