Translation, please, of an 1881 baptism record with a burial note dated 1955?

I believe this is a baptism record for Maria Ann Moser of Birndorf baptised in January. There is a notation on the left side that seems to be about her burial in some other village 74 years later on Jan. 23, 1955 (a cross, for death, and some other characters preceding "1955."

Her parents should be Johan Evangelist Moser and Magdalena Maier. I think the father's name is there.

I've attached both an enlargement of the baptism record and also a copy of the full page. The scribe does have notes in the margins for the other entries on the page, but none with a cross (for death) and a date so many years after the baptism.

Isn't this rather odd?

Thanks so much for the translation.

Comment:

You are right, the (added) notation in the left margin refers to the death and burial of Maria Anna. Such later additions to the birth record are not unusual, although not present in all cases. It depends on whether these facts have come to the pastor's attention.

There are two Fullendorfs in Meyers Gaz (https://s.meyersgaz.org/search?search=pfullendorf) ; I guess the death place of Maria Anna is the first one (https://www.meyersgaz.org/place/20474032).
