    Johannes Jenta died 08 Sep 1828 at 10:30 p.m., aged 55y 8m 5d from hydrops = hydrophobia, Latin for rabies [according to Thode]. He was buried on 12 Sep 1828.

    I am not sure about Thode's explanation - I would guess it is Greek for Wassersucht (in German) = dropsy in English.

    https://community.familysearch.org/en/profile/WSeelentag Wow, I assume it was dropsy and not rabies because three people on this page died from it.
