Um, yes, but it's kind of painful. It is headed "Christenings 1768" and I can make out some names or parts of names (for example, the first entry is "Mary Daughter of Samuel [can't read the rest of the line]") and some dates (most of which are in August and September). Whose name(s) are you looking for here?
