Sakarias Eriksson Silla

Sakarias ended up in a duel with Christen Mørck in a tavern after a few words about a debt of cows. The other people in the tavern went outside before the fight happened, but when they came back inside they found Sakarias dead. They soon contacted Company Commander Øxendorf which gathered 30 soldiers to search for the killer. When Sakarias was buried 04/10/1721 (9 days after his death) Mørck was still nowhere to be found. Christen Mørck escaped and was never put to justice.
