Obituaries were sometimes written in variable-sized blocks on several parts of a folio at different times by different people.
It may not relate well to blocks of different sizes and shapes (especially if some are diagonal), but the general notion of groups of data added at various times on various parts of the page certainly existed.

What could be the purpose of that? I can see how it contributes to the aesthetics of the page, viz. to fill in a gap, but I'm drawing a blank for a good plaintext or meaning-related reason for it.
