ta’ 15-il persuna kuljum. F’G?awdex da?let fl-20 ta’ Lulju fejn bdiet mix-Xewkija u tferrxet f’?akka ta’ g?ajn fejn mietu madwar 256 ru?.6 Fi?-?ebbu? bdiet fit-23 ta’ Awissu u damet sal-10 ta’ Ottubru 1865. Dun ?wann kien bi qlubija u m?abba kbira jassisti mal-morda minn filg?odu sa bil-lejl. Mi?-?ebbu? insibu li mietu dsatax-il ru? fejn wa?da mill-vittmi kienet omm il-kappillan stess. Margerita mietet fl-eta` ta’ 63 sena nhar is-27 ta’ Awwissu 1865 fejn ?iet midfuna ?-?ebbu? stess. I?da naraw li wara 16-il sena, fis-sena 1881, meta Dun ?wann issa kien la?aq kappillan tan-Nadur, huwa ?abar ilfdalijiet ta’ l-g?a?i?a ommu u difinha fil-knisja tanNadur.7 Il-Kappillan Camilleri dam fil-parro??a ta?-?ebbu? fuq sentejn, sat-30 ta’ Ottubru 1865. L-ewwel Isqof ta’ G?awdex, Mons. Mikiel F. Buttigieg (1864-1866) ?atru b?ala d-disa’ Kappillan tal-parro??a taxXag?ra, fejn dam g?al 16-il sena sas-sena 1881. Hawn naraw li l-Kappillan tax-Xag?ra, Dun Fran?isk Buttigieg (1817-1863), li kien ukoll mill-parro??a tanNadur u kien ji?i l-ku?in tal-istess l-Isqof Buttigieg, kien g?adu kemm miet bil-kolera fit-3 ta’ Ottubru 1865 fl-eta` ta’ 47 sena, vittma tal-im?abba lejn ilmorda tal-parro??a tieg?u.8 Wie?ed jista jissopponi li l-g?a?la waqg?et fuq Dun ?wann peress li dan ukoll ma be?ax idur bil-morda tal-kolera b’riskju kbir g?al ?ajtu. Jing?ad li din il-marda li tittie?det messitu fejn wara g?addieha lil ommu Margerita. I?da wara li huwa ?elisha, ommu marret quddiem il-Mulej. F’din il-parro??a tal-Bambina, stinka ukoll biex jordna l-istatwa titulari mill-istess Ditta tal- Galard Statuaire Marseille. Din waslet ix-Xag?ra fis-sena 1873 u ?allas g?aliha ?ertu An?lu Bonello u ?iet tqum 100 skud (€19.40). Kif ukoll fis-sena 1879 ordna g?and l-istess ditta l-istatwa ta’ San ?u?epp fejn ?allas g?aliha Wi?i Cini. Kien dan il-kappillan li fis-26 ta’ Mejju 1878 ikkonsagra l-knisja talBambina flimkien mal-altar ma??ur tal-ir?am, millIsqof Mons. Pietru Pace (1877-1888).9 Minn hawn, fl-età ta’ 51 sena, fl-1 ta’ Marzu 1881, l-Isqof Pietru Pace ?atru b?ala d-disa’ Kappillan talparro??a fejn twieled, dik tan-Nadur. Dun ?wann kien l-ewwel Kappillan Naduri g?al din il-parro?ca. G?alhekk f’ra?al twelidu l-ewwel ?a?a li g?amel kien li b?a?-?ew? parro??i l-o?ra ordna l-istatwa titulari ta’ l-Appostli San Pietru u San Pawl g?and l-istess ditta. L-istatwa ta’ San Pietru t?allset milqarib tieg?u Mikieli Caruana u ta’ San Pawl millparru??ani kollha. ?iet tqum 300 skud (€58.2), u ??an?net fl-Imnarja tas-sena 1882.
