Sherman:
from the jpg I agree with others on this NG that it is "Dom: Reminis:" -
to be read as "Dominica Reminiscere".
No, there is but one sunday per year with that name. It is the name of
one of the sundays in lent:
1) Invocavit
2) Reminiscere
3) Oculi
4) Laetare
5) Judica
6) Palmarum
i.e. Reminiscere is the fifth sunday before Easter.
The sunday names 1 to 5 are derived from the starting words of the
opening verses assigned to the beginning of the respective services:
Psalm 91:15
Psalm 25:6
Psalm 25:15
Isaiah 66:10
Psalm 43:1
(Chapters and verses according to the numbering of my German, Protestant
Bible. Catholic bibles may have different numbering, especially in
Psalms.)
"Dominica Palmarum" is, of course "Palm sunday".
Now - which date is "Dom: Reminis: 1724"?
In the Gregorian Calendar (and I assume it is not Julian, because by
1724 most countries had joined the Gregorian community - Orthodox
Russia, of course, continued to differ), it was March 12th (Easter:
April 16th).
By the way, I do not understand why you say that it was the last baptism
entry for that year. The jpg I saw under the link you posted, shows the
bottom of one page and the beginning of another one, marked "4 20" in
the top left corner. If that is the following page to the one where the
"Dom: Reminis" entry is found, then you have there another baptism
entry, starting in the 4th line with "Dom: XIX Trinit:" which is 19th
sunday after Trinity or 20th sunday after Pentecost (22 Oct 1724).
