Can you translate this death record of Hans Mauritsen's son on 24 August 1788 on the left side of the page? Most of it I can understand, but it looks like it refers to 2 deaths. And does it state the cause of death? It is in Pedersker, Bornholm, Denmark

Yes, sadly two of Hans Mauritzen's sons, died of "kopper" (small pox and ?). Here is a view of this family just the year before. Hans was from Gretha Jepp Rasmusen's previous marriage and so was Rasmus. Morten was 3/4 year old. The death record indicates Rasmus was 9 but the census a year before indicates he was 6.
