Daniel Frisano Nov 17, 2017:
Sounds reasonable. My assumption is that epus. = episcopus, eppus. = episcopatus, but it's just an assumption.
Sandra Mouton Nov 17, 2017:
@asker I believe that it will be immediately evident to you whether your abbreviation refers to the bishop of Cracow or to his office so between Daniel's answer and mine, you should have your solution.

bishop

I believe it is more likely to be an abbreviation for episcopus (bishop) than one for episcopatus (episcopate).
I found several hits online where it was clearly used for episcopus.
A very similar abbreviation for bishop is epus.

Episcopatum
Peer comment(s):

neutral Sandra Mouton : I removed my previous comment where I had mixed up two different terms for episcopate. However, I believe it is more likely to refer to episcopus (see my answer).
