there should be two witnesses listed - see microfilm of parish reg transcription available on lds films - however you may be unlucky and find one is parish clerk though if German registers are a guide the appearance of family/friends as witnesses was becoming much more common at this time - there may be a note in the actual register (not normally copied in the 1911 transcription) giving place of residence etc but this depends on clergyman - I havn't looked at actual registers for Patrick as they are not yet in Manx Museum (who will probably microfilm them fairly quickly)
There may be a comment in the paper but unlikely as Patrick was back of beyond as far as Douglas was concerned.
