It says - "Er ist der Angabe nach 47-48 Jahre alt geworden." Translation - "It is said he was about 47-48 years old."

@sylviaelchinger1 Thank you for that.
That sentence is odd because there was a note in the margin of the death record indicating his birth data of 3 Jul 1740. Considering his death date was Mar 1797, it's clear he was 56 yrs old. That makes me think that the note about his birth date was added some time after the scribe initially wrote the entry and at the time no one perhaps remembered his birthday...
