Here's a record of a private baptism from the Church of England in Canada:

about Clarence John Minchinton
Name: Clarence John Minchinton
Event Year: 1908
Event: Naissance (Birth)

Clarence John, son of John
Francis Minchinton of the
Noth West Arm, Gaspé, and of
Beatrice Isobel (Olsen) his
wife, was born on the sixth
and was baptized on the
thirteenth day of September
A.D. Nineteen hundred and eight.
By me

Beatrice Minchinton


Occassionally, there'll be a subsequent record (from 1909 here).

Maybe 'private baptism'.
Sometimes these were carried out in a hurry if the baby was sickly and not expected to live.

Researching:
Weedon - Australia, Hertfordshire; Paterson - Scotland; Elmer - Huntingdon; Ball, Lloyd, Warren - Birmingham; Branson - Bucks;
