It took place in the city of Terespol on February 28, 1885, at 10 a.m.
A Jew named Leibko Finkelstein, a carpenter, 42 years old, who lives in the city of Terespol, appeared in person.
In the presence of Jews named Chaim Ioslya Rubinstein, 55 years old, and Kopel Monchik, 65 years old, both of whom are schoolteachers, they presented us with a male infant. They declared that the infant

This infant (this) was given the name Moshka Chaim during the circumcision ceremony.

To add to Svetlana's translation, the mother's name was Sima Keyla. The child Moshko Khaim was my great grand uncle.

Not in this document, but from family sources - the full name of Leibko was Volf Leibko.
