I've had this translated, but the translator wasn't sure about Elia's patronymic. If any native Russian speakers can make out the name, I'd be very grateful. Translation below:

This happened in the town of Szczuczyn on September 22nd (September 10, Julian), 1875 at 10 A.M. Elia Anisimowicz* Karabanow presented himself, age 30, a non-commissioned officer in the 6th Gluchow Dragoon regiment quartered in the town of Szczuczyn, in the presence of Herszk Tetenbaum, a merchant, age 40 and Szolim Zajdenberg, a sexton, age 63, living in the town of Szczuczyn, and showed us a child of male gender, stating that he was born here in the town of Szczuczyn on September 14th (September 2, Julian) of the current year at 10 P.M. to his lawful wife, Ryfka Dawidowna, age 19. This child, at circumcision was given the name Semion Isaak**. This record was read aloud to the declarant and witnesses and then we and those present signed.

* Patronym hard to read, but this is best guess.
