I defer to @Cousin Vinny for this one, but this appears to be the heart of the text:

25-Aug-1877
Antonia Salvati wife of Camillo Iacono ?, peasant farmer, presented a female baby of the apparent age of one day, wrapped in a yellowish diaper and on its head a white cotton cap, and declared to me that the aforementioned child, last night at 11 p.m., was left at the entrance door of her home.
The baby was given the name Lavinia and the surname SalamitiThe margin note refers to Lavinia's marriage in 1899, located here:

Thank you for your help. Lavinia was my great grandmother. Those people really suffered. We are so blessed.

The date on the record is 12 Nov 1877 (@SantaNinfa you read the date when the official was appointed) and the husband of the woman making the declaration is Camillo di Zacomo. Other than that I agree.
