Help reading an estate record
Could someone please translate this estate entry? I'm looking for the information regarding ANDERS RUNS and his wife was MARGARETA SCHRAGGE. If you could figure out what his death date is: I can see a January 1725 - although at the top it states Year 1726. Thanks for any help!

The inventory of estate was drawn up on 4 August 1726. The deceased's name is Anders Runs and his death date was ____ January 1725. It looks like a space was left to write in the day, but it never was done. His "widowed wife" is Margareta Schragge and they had five children: 1) Carl Runs (no age is given for him, which is unusual, but the last word on the line (sjösk...) could indicate that he was "lost at sea" (or it could mean something altogether different!); 2) Maria who is 20 years old and works for "jeweler Bergman"; 3) 19 year old Catharina; 4) 14 year old Anika; and 5) 12 year old Jöns.
After a little research, his burial is listed here on 20 January 1725 in Riddarholmen parish in Stockholm: https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0055334_00431#?c=&m=&s=&cv=430&xywh=2909%2C2393%2C3236%2C1738
