Can you figure out what this probate sentence means?

This is an 1864 probate summary excerpt, and I'm having trouble figuring out the last line (in brackets). It seems to say:

vits å være død, mew om han har etterlatt seg noew arvigner kjenden maw ilcke til

I'm not a native speaker, so have to rely on Google Translate: "It's funny to be dead, but if he left behind any heirs, the celebrity would be happy to." That doesn't make sense to me. Anyone willing to lend a quick hand and figure out what it means? source: https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/39948/19854
