The missing words, I think, are:

Near Whiting bay
(Usual Residence, Glasgow Street, Ardrossan)

Decipher wording on this certificate

I've been asked if I could decipher the wording in the second column of this death certificate.
Here's what we can make out: "February Eleventh about 12 Noon on Board the Barque Union of Ardrossan".
Unknown words. Then ending in "Glasgow Street, Ardrossan".

This certificate refers to one of over 300 local ship's masters in our topic, Saltcoats Shipmasters
