Who's Up on Their Latin Church Records?

Looking for a little help here...

I'm trying to figure out one of the dates on my grandfather's brother's baptismal record (from a village church in Poland).

I know that the date circled in light blue is his birth /baptismal date (Sept 27/30, 1906), and the date circled in light green is the date of his first marriage and the name of his wife, and the date circled in light orange is the date of his second marriage and the name of that wife, and the date circled in purple is the date of his death. But what I haven't seen before is the items circled in red. The top one has a date of 23/5 929 (May 23, 1929) with an abbreviation before it (estr?). Michael would have been 23 years old then. The bottom item circled in red looks like "H 185" or maybe "4 185". Here's the same record without my edit marks... any ideas of what that date and abbreviation are about?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
