Translation by Robert Seal:
Heading at top of page: In the year 1875 were married:
Number: 6.
Marriage date: 11 Mar 1875.
Groom: Wilhelm Phil[ipp] Weick, mason here, 29 years old, widower here.
Groom's parents: Philipp Weick, day laborer here, and Margaretha, née Roth.
Bride: Philippine Scholl, 38 years old, unmarried.
Bride's parents: [?] Wilhelm Scholl, farmer here, and Margaretha, née Weber.
Remarks: III. 122.
Written across bottom of the record is the pastor's signature: H.
Zimmern?, pastor.
My comments: This is what I read in the Marriage date column: "11 März auf H. U. vom 11 März 1875". I am not familar with the abbreviation "H. U." But because both dates are the same, you can feel comfortable that the marriage took place on 11 March 1875. I am not sure what the abbreivation or symbol is before the bride's father's name. It might be a poorly-formed + indicating that the father was deceased (which he was at the time of this marriage, having died in 1858)
Kent note: Philippine Scholl was the youngest of 8 children. Her father Wilhelm died in 1858 and she got married in 1875. So yes, it is probably a cross meaning that her father had passed away.
Good to see Wilhelm Weick's profession again!

| Philipp Wilhelm Weick family book 102118620 page 1340 |
Notice in the heading at the top of the page the father's name is "Wilhelm Philipp Weick" but in the record itself his name is: "Philip(p) Wilhelm Weick". So you will need to search for him under both forms of his name.
As you correctly pointed out Philip(p) Wilhelm Weick was married twice, hence there are two separate family groups on this page Family 1
Here is the first family group for Philip(p) Wilhelm Weick and Katharina Christina Hüttner:
Father: Weick, Philip(p) Wilhelm, born 24 Apr 1846, died 15 May 1912. (Family Book II, 199).
married: 7 Sep 1871.
Mother: Hüttner, Katharina Christina, born 29 Jun 1844, died 22 Oct 1874. (Family Book II, 156).
Children:
[1] Before the marriage: Wilhelm Heinrich, born 28 Jun 1870, died 20 Aug 1870.
(2) Martin, born 13 Jan 1873.
My comment: Since the first child, Wilhelm Heinrich, was born and died before the marriage, you should look for his birth and death records under his mother's maiden name "Hüttner".
Family 2
Here is the second family group for Philip(p) Wilhelm Weick and Philippina Scholl:
Father: Weick, Philip(p) Wilhelm, born 24 Apr 1846, died 15 May 1912. (Family Book II, 199).
married: 11 Mar 1875.
Mother: Philippina Scholl, born 8 Sep 1837, died 16 Oct 1913. (Family Book I, 228).
Children:
(2b)? Brought to the marriage a daughter Katharina Philippina, born 3 Jan 1861.
(3) Wilhelmina, born 11 Jul 1876. [Not sure what the bracketed note means.]
(4) Ernestina, born 4 Jan 1878, married 7 Oct 1905, Albert Roß [unable to decipher remainder of note].
(5) Philippine, born 18 Mar 1880, died 31 Jan 1918.
(6) Karolina, born 9 Nov 1881, died 13 Oct 1882.
