Stillborn? Twins
Can you please interpret this birth record for two twins. I believe it says both are dead and unchristened, but the Daabns Datum column has a date 6 May. What is that? And what is the comment underneath? FamilySearch has one, K6HW-MXT, dying on the day of birth (March 25, 1859) and the other, LR6M-WKJ, dying on 6 May. What does the record actually say? Thank you.

This image of the same record is easier to read as it is a color image: https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/en/billedviser?bsid=392523#392523,74306420.
This birth/christening record does indeed indicate that the first twin (entry 38) died unbaptized but then it records the christening date as 6 May. However this is a mistake. The death/burial records lists his death date as 1 May and burial date as 6 May. I think the clerk must have mistakenly listed the burial date on the line for the christening. The death/burial date for both twin boys is here (entries 24 and 29): https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/en/billedviser?bsid=392526#392526,74306624 . Both boys were "unbaptized" when they died.
In the birth/christening record, the note in the christening column for the 2nd twin (entry 39) says "4 hours after birth" which must mean he died then because the death record gives his age as "4 hours".
In the birth/christening record, the parents are "ships carpenter Guldbrand Fredriksen and wife Mariane Christensen 23 years old". The last part of that column is probably their address.
The family is here in the 1860 census: https://www.danishfamilysearch.com/cid17810130.
