When dealing with European records (or any records besides America), you need to think in European date style.
With the complete name of Maria do Something Rodrigues, married on 4 January 1905 in Providence, Rhode Island, America of the North, with Mariano Rocha de Lima, native of the Azores. The rest is about making the note in the margin. If you don't have the marriage in Providence, I'd go and check Holy Family Church. It's on Benefit or Traverse St. You'll find it with an Internet search. The next note says on the day 13 of X of 1943 in the freguesia of Sao Pedro of this council, Mariano Rocha da Lima, obit # 564-943 of this conservatory. Then the note made about when the note was made. So Maria's marriage was "dissolved" by her husband's death. The "X" may refer to December or October. Kinda weird for them to be using this style in 1943.
