Michael McNamara, baptised 1846 Killaloe/Tulla

At line 165 is the baptism of Michael McNamara, son of Martin and Ellen (Foley).  The Ancestry.com shows this page from Killaloe/Tulla.  I need help with the term "Bid" after the Martin's name.  Does anyone know what this means.  I work in a clinic at to me "bid" means twice daily!  Also after the name Ellen Foley is a word that I cannot decipher at all.  Any assistance appreciated.  Thanks, Dan McNamara, Ottawa, Canada

Dan,

I attach a record from subscription site - www.findmypast.ie - 

I should have indicated that Ellen Foley was a Baptismal Sponsor.
