Hello Tina,

here my transcription:

die 85 Leichpredigt

habe ich M. Johannes Frik gethan dem Ehrenhaften und Vorgeachten H. Jeremias Lidel geweßten Adjunctus auf dem Steuerhauß? d 24 Nov _ 1

and translation:

the 85th funeral sermon

have I, Magister Johannes Frik, done for the honorable and respected Mr. Jeremias Lidel, former "Adjunctus" in the taxoffice?, on 24 November __? 1

Comment: I am not quite sure what the occupation/title Adjunctus means here. Adjunctus in Latin is a helper, or deputy, e.g. for a teacher or pastor. It seems that the word before the date at the end is Steuerhaus which could mean a form of tax office, so he can have been a fiscal agent.

The "H." is an abbreviation for "Herr" - I translated it as Mr. However, then it was more a courtesy title; not every man was a Herr. Here it underlines that an Adjunctus held a prominent position.

Thank you! @Ulrich Neitzel Do you know why there is an h: before Jeremias' name in the column?
