The Ullfall Murder
Per Olsson was born on September 24, 1797, at a crofter’s holding
in Gustava, as the 5th child in a hard working family. He grew up
in Gustava a small place in the near of Hagfors in Northern Wermland.
The family lived in a red cottage situated in the forest, consisting of
one room and a kitchen. There was a wood stove in the kitchen, the
only heating to warm up. Water was brought out of a spring in the
garden. Five hens picking up seed in the garden supplied the house-
hold with eggs. Two cows supplied milk fulfilling the family’s request.
According to current rules, people were obliged to have four cows,
if having a horse. Per’s father was anyway keeping a horse to care
out the forestry. At that time, men living in Gustava worked as
farmers, black-smiths and craftsmen, while the women worked with
household duties.
After nine years at school Per Olsson starts to work as a farmer’s hand
at Mathew Olsson’s crofter’s holding Ullfallet in Gustafa. Mathews is
married to Lisa. Per starts to help Mathews carrying through different
duties at his small farm. Mathews has an austere look. Even his wife is
afraid of him. As Mathews and Lisa doesn’t have any children by their
own, Tom, a young shepherd boy, is living together with them. Mathews
and Per are working hard together for a long time reaching good agree-
ment. Mathews is content with their team-work and good co-operation.
However, Per keeps a secret in his mind, namely to buy a rowing-boat,
enable him to go out fishing. But, there is a problem, because he has
neither got any money nor earning much. One day, he asks Mathews:
“Please, could you lend me 30 rixdollar?” Mathew answers: “Why,
do you want me to borrow you 30 rixdollar?” Per says: “Because, I’ve
got a dream. The money makes it possible to buy a rowing-boat.”
Mathews says: “I’ll think it over. You’ll get an answer within a week”.
As Mathew is satisfied with the work Per executes at his farm, he is
afraid missing him and anxious to meet his wishes. After three days
Mathews contacts Per informing: “Yes, I’ll lend you 30 rixdollar, if
you promise to repay the money plus an interest of 2 % within a
period of three months. ”Happy to hear Mathews admitting the loan,
Per confirms: “I promise you to repay the 30 rixdollar plus 2% interest
according to due date.
Whistling happily Per goes away buying a rowing-boat. Since that day
Per goes fishing early in the mornings. As a matter of fact, Pers’ salary
doesn’t make it possible to save money for the loan. Consequently,
after three months he has almost 30 Rixdollar to repay. Matheus is
disappointed hearing Per can’t repay the loan as agreed upon. But,
he promises Per to wait for another month. When even this month is
passed Mathew becomes furious and emphasises to Per: “ It’s an
agreement and you’ve promised me to repay and settle the amount on
due date.” Per answers: “Yes, but you haven’t paid enough salary enabling
me to repay and settle the loan. I really, want to settle the loan.”
After that day, as soon as Mathews meets Per he reminds him about
the outstanding amount. Of course, Per wants to repay the money,
but he just doesn’t earn enough as Mathew is a skinflint. Per gets
tired hearing Mathew reminding him time after another. He starts
to avoid and to keep away from Mathew to be spared from hearing
his reminders. One day, when Per is scythe working out in the fields,
Mathews turns up again threatening him saying: “You’ll have to hand
in a resignation, if not settling the loan of 30 rixdollar excluding 2%
interest within soon. I’ll get you scolded in the farmers’ neighbourhood,
if you can’t keep your promise paying back your debt.”
At this time Per has been working at Mathews’ farm for a couple of
years. Still, he is a bachelor and has the intention to move out from
Mathews’ house and take over Gummen, a crofter’s holding in Gustava.
A friend of Per, Lars Olsson, has promised Per to be his farm-hand,
carrying through different duties at the crofter Gummen.
From now on, Per has gone tired almost mad of Mathews’ nagging about
the loan as soon as meeting him. Late one evening Per brings Lars with
him to Mathews’ farm to give notice and inform Mathew, that he still
doesn’t have the money and is unable to repay the loan. Before, going
to Mathews’ farm they have some fun and drink a bottle of liquid. There-
after, being somewhat drunk, they decide to follow the way through the
wood to Mathews’ farm. Per wishes he had got the money to repay the loan,
but he hasn’t. As a matter of fact, Per likes Mathew, but he can’t stand
him claiming the debt all the time.
He has to do something thoroughgoing to get rid of all nagging about
money. In the middle of the night arriving in front of Matheus’ house,
he opens the door and steps brave inside. Per is a tall and thin guy, but
not weak. He isn’t aggressive in any way, even if always keeping a knife
in one of his long trouser pockets as a precautionary measure. Coming
inside Per gets furious, when once again hearing Matheus’s voice reminding
him about due date of the debt.
Per can’t stand hearing the claim any longer. Violently, he raises the right
hand in which he holds a knife. Suddenly, he cuts Mathew deep in the throat
and short thereafter his wife, Lisa. Mathew takes out his hands to protect
himself, while the blood gushes from the deep wound at the same time as it
red-colours his shirt. In vain, he tries to say something. The blood in his
throat just enables him to groan a little. When he tries to talk, there is a
a gurgling sound. After some minutes he collapses and falls to the floor,
where he remains lying. For some minutes his body shakes somewhat.
A few minutes thereafter, he lies pale, still and calm on the floor. The
only person, participating during the brutal murder is Tom, the shepherd
boy, who gets a shock and runs away.
When Per and Lars understand, that Mathew and his wife are brought
to death they become confused and start to shout to each other: “What’ve
we done?” “After this deed, we’ll get our throats cut off.”
Calming down they get aware of having to get rid of two human
beings’ bodies. To remove evidence they get an idea and decide
to put the Ullfallet farm on fire. Executing the idea, Per becomes
scared and starts running into the wood in order to hide the murder
weapon, his knife. Having run for two hours Per and Lars get tired
and lay down to rest in a barn, but before doing that, they pick some
eggs in the poultry-yard to appease the hunger, not having eaten
since yesterday.
Afraid, hiding in the barn they are aware of, that the police force
within soon would search for them. They didn’t want to appear in
public. When dark had fallen they were sneaking like Indians into
the food cellar of a house situated not far from there, where they had
stolen some bread and ham. In the dark they had seen how the Ullfallet
farm was on fire. Per understood, that he couldn’t go on behaving like
this much longer. After some days the people in the neighbourhood
should know all about what had happened at the Ullfallet and was on
the look out for Per and Lars. Having eaten Per and Lars decide to go
to the police to confess, what they had been up to.
Well, arriving to the police Per and his friend Lars were arrested. They
were informed by the police, that their case was planned to be handled
within a week. Spending the days in the arrest the police executed cross-
examination technique. At once, Per admitted the committed murder of
Mathew and Lisa, his wife and Lars assisting the crime. As a matter of
fact, there was a witness to the crime, Tom, the shepherd boy working
for Mathew and Lisa, who witnessed the crime. During the legal proceeding
Per admitted the murder of Mathew and his wife Lisa. Lars admitted being
his assistant. The Supreme Court made the final judicial decision sentencing
Per Olsson and Lars Olsson to death by beheading. At this time beheading
was a popular entertainment.
On December 20, 1823, Per Olsson and Lars Olsson were beheaded outside
Ullfallet, the crofter’s holding. The parish clergyman read some lines out
of the bible before the action was executed. After the beheading Pers’ and
Lars’ heads were placed with public views on poles in front of the house
Ullfallet. As actions like this was a very popular entertainment, people
round about Gustava participated the execution of the two persons, who
had committed murder.
Svea Hovrätt was handling the Ullfall murder case at the Court of Justice

A man from N.Y.
There was a young man from N.Y.,
Who went from there to Cork,
To see his beautiful girl Philly,
But when arriving there, she was filly,
Which unable him to try his pork.
An honest young man called Bill,
Was supposed paying his bill,
Friends around the table looking tall,
Seeing if he was supposed to fall,
While feeling sorry as he falls down the hill.
There once was a girl named Sarah,
Whose legs were as long as the Sahara,
She went out one day
While having something to say
As she came back the other day saying: “Ah!”
The late Mr A Graham Bell,
Once tried to jump into a well,
But there he was the nasty bishop,
Who had made the rubber cord-shop
So he falls and falls and his last words is: “bloody hell!”
A man called George
There once was a muscular man from George,
He was a struggling Hi-man working in his forge
Always he tried to be alert
Sitting on his post dressed in a yellow skirt.
Participating in a war the soldier’s name was George
Yes, he loved his girl
Because she was like a pearl
He wrote her a poem
Which sounded like a Chorus.
She was his girl from Söul.
He was a data nerd
Spiritually allied to the bird
He said:”Put out your tongue
And I’ll write you a song,
While finding a queen of world.”
The young girl would make
Advances to snake after snake.
She said: “I’m not vicious,
But so superstitious!
I do it for Grand mama’s sake”.
Poems
Observation Power
I just went out looking for something,
Saw the sky was blue and the sun shining,
It was like an ordinary Swedish summer day
Very alike one between two seasons.
The first odour my nose smelled
Was the smoke from an ashtray
Aware of inhaling the smoke was unhealthy
Well witnessed by that, I did it anyway.
There he stood, the guardian of knowledge
Immovable he stood there big and strong
In front of the university being a symbol
Donated by Herman Reijers, a big artist.
A Gift
Watch up, I’m going to cut my hand
On the sharp knife you gave me.
Yes, I ought to know, what to do:
I’ve to bandage the wound myself
And hide the blood from you.
Is it a murderer’s knife?
How often you’ve warned me:
For if looking for pity
Or trying a persuader’s note
I must either restore it
Or through it into my throat.
Children
You were a daredevil and I was shy:
There were eager and curious eyes.
You took a nap on the lawn among the roses,
And counting the stars across a summer sky
Flashed by volleys when he chooses.
None spoke with you, I alone adored you,
Child of the wave, child of the morning dew,
And in my dreams went hunting here and there
A fugitive beacon – your moon- your blond hair.
Sonnets
A Praise to Life
The day is clear at the sky’s rand.
Wake up, wake up my beautiful land!
Father’s craft surrounds your walls.
Please, go your way in justify
And opening the gate-way to felicity!
Spring has breaking out of darkness and ice.
Wake up, wake up heart in praise and price!
Father, Father, solace all what suffers.
Bring us into love, wipe away tears of sorrow-time.
Wake up soul of sun and spring-time!
“The Emergency Care”
Suddenly, the Emergency Care gets an alarm.
Rescue vehicles call for attention, is it an accident?
Or is it someone, who’s sprained his arm?
Is it an accident or just an ordinary incident?
Someone calls the Emergency Care for immediate care.
An ambulance well equipped and of a new yellow brand,
Blue lights twinkling violently in an attempt being there.
The man might die lying there helpless on the sand.
No man was upon the strand helping an injured man.
An aristocratic from the upper class, you smell it in the air.
A nurse reached him just in time, according to a plan.
Upon the strand, a girl kisses a wounded man’s hair.
Now, his weakness is evident, you see it of his pale face.
When the ambulance nurse brought him away from the place.
Ballad
My Dear Little Pet
I still feel the pain deep in my heart
And a heart which is broken
Now he is gone for ever
I can’t see him any longer
I can’t see him any longer
I ask myself did it hurt?
And has he been suffering?
Yes, I think he suffered
But, now he is gone for ever
But now he is gone for ever
Whenever, I close my eyes
The murderer is there
He is sitting on the driver’s seat
I can see him in front of my eyes
I can see him in front of my eyes
I can hear the wheels of the car
The four are furious screaming
When the murderer breaks brake linings
And it happened in the middle of the night
And it happened in the middle of the night
I cry, because there he was just a minute ago
And now laying on the pavement unmovable
Yes, he is lying unmovable in the street
And now my little pet is gone for ever
And now my little pet is gone for ever

A Dialogue between two people, not knowing each other
On Sunday afternoon a person calls one of the emergency operatorsby dialling 112,
to get a piece of advice, when not feeling well.The operator recommends a visit at
the hospitals’ emergency room,the so called E.R., for consulting, where the following
dialogue takesplace between a doctor and his patient:
The patient: “Good afternoon! I’m glad you’re taking your time tolook at me, because I don’t feel very well. I’ve no ideawhat’s the matter with me."
The doctor: “Good afternoon! As a matter of fact I’ve finished offthe meeting with the former patient, that’s why I'vemanaged to visit you within soon. Now, tell me, what's wrongwith you?”
The patient:“Yesterday, I went to the West Coast together with my boyfriend.We just intended to go to the South end of theKoster Island andback during the day, as I suddenlybegan to feel ill.”
The doctor: “That sounds to be a very nice trip, but what happened?”
The patient: “Already, early in the morning, when starting the trip by car toStrömstad I felt very frozen and had got headache. Arrivingin Strömstad we took the ferry to the South endof the KosterIsland.It was a hot and sunny day. Even on board at the ferry I felt frozen,which I thought depended on the wind blowing. I love to take a swimin the salt waterat the West Coast even if there are some jelly-fishes,so the first thing I did entering the beach was to go for a swim. Inthe cold salted water I was seized with cramp, what made me interruptswimming around.The water was cold, which it usually is at the Southend of the Koster Island. We had brought some sandwiches and svacuum jug with coffee. As I started to feel sick, I didn'tparticipate the picnic. It was a wonderful sunny day andI went for another swim. At about four o’clock in theafternoon, we took the ferry back to Strömstad, wherewe had the car at a parking lot. At the ferry my body startedto freeze still more. I was almost shaking. As soon as theferry arrived in Strömstad we started the journey back toKarlstad. The driver had to put on the heat in the car cabin,as I was shivering so much. I felt like having high fever.However, there had arisen another problem, because nextday at eleven o’clock a.m. I was supposed to participate ina golf competition at Kils’ Golf Court. I felt pity for my boy-friend should sustain playing golf because of me not feelingwell. Anyway, I recommendet him to go.tAwaking this morning I still had got fever in my body,more than +40 degrees, why I immediately had a coupleof antipyretics. When my friend went back this afternoon,I still had very high fever, despite the antipyretics. Then,I felt somewhat anxious about my condition. That’s whyI called the emergency operator for a piece of advice.The nurse wanted me to visit the E.R., the Emergency Roomat the hospital and here I’m. Look, I’ve also got a discolouredpot on my left leg."The doctor: “For your information, I’ve got the result of the blood test,taken by the nurse, which indicates some sort of infection,but there is a problem. We don’t know what kind of infectionit is. You see, working at the hospital’s E.R. is very alikeworking as Sherlock Holmes, being a detective. Would youplease tell me what you’ve been up to these days beforegoing to Strömstad?”The patient: “Yes of course, on Thursday evening my friend and I wentto Grums’ Old Homestead Museum, where they had anentertainment in a barn. You see, the father of a school-mateof mine has given the Homestead Museum to the church andto the community. It’s driven as a non-profit-making associationand I was a member of the board. Afterwards, when people wentfor coffee-time that evening, I was assisting bringing chairs outof the barn. It was dark and dirty inside the barn. On Fridaymorning I went as usual to work.”
The doctor: “Would you please take off your trousers, enabling me to havea look at the discoloured spot on your left leg! Have you gotsome insect-bite on your body?”
The patient: “No, not that I’m aware of. Before going to the hospitals’ E.R.I carefully checked the body to eliminate tick-bites, but Icouldn’t find any.”
The doctor: “Let me examine your body! Please raise your left leg anothertime! Ah, there it is! Here on you left leg you’ve got a red mark.I’ll take a test and send it away to the laboratory for an analysis.Now, I’ve got a slight idea, what it might be, but I’ll wait for theanswer of the analysis before making a diagnosis.You see, it’s no good to give you penicillin, when not knowingexactly what kind of penicillin is going to work your case. Now,we’ll have to wait a day or two, before we’ve got the answer ofthe analysis. Until then, I keep you at the hospital and prescribesome antipyretic and discharge fluid. I just want you to be patient!”
Dear readers, now I’d like you to guess and answer the five questions below:
No 1: “Who are the actors in this dialogue?”
No 2: “What’s the reason, why this person contacts the emergency operator?”
No 3: “What occurred to this person before contacting the E.R.?”
No 4: “How did it happen?”
No 5: “When did it actually happen?”July 13, 2008, Nilla

The patient: “Already, early in the morning, when starting the trip by car to

It was a hot and sunny day. Even on board at the ferry I felt frozen,

A Dialogue between two persons, not knowing each other
On Sunday afternoon a person calls one of the emergency operators
by dialling 112, to get a piece of advice, when not feeling well.
The operator recommends a visit at the hospitals’ emergency room,
the so called E.R., for consulting, where the following dialogue takes
place between a doctor and his patient:
The patient: “Good afternoon! I’m glad you’re taking your time to
look at me, because I don’t feel very well. I’ve no idea
what’s the matter with me."
The doctor: “Good afternoon! As a matter of fact I’ve finished off
the meeting with the former patient, that’s why I've
managed to visit you within soon. Now, tell me, what's wrong
with you?”
The patient:“Yesterday, I went to the West Coast together with my boyfriend.
We just intended to go to the South end of theKoster Island and
back during the day, as I suddenlybegan to feel ill.”
The doctor: “That sounds to be a very nice trip, but what happened?”
The patient: “Already, early in the morning, when starting the trip by car to
Strömstad I felt very frozen and had got head-ache. Arriving
in Strömstad we took the ferry to the South endof the Koster
Island.
It was a hot and sunny day. Even on board at the ferry I felt frozen,
which I thought depended on the wind blowing. I love to take a swim
in the salt waterat the West Coast even if there are some jelly-fishes,
so the first thing I did entering the beach was to go for a swim. In
the cold salted water I was seized with cramp, what made me interrupt
swimming around.The water was cold, which it usually is at the South

A Visit at the Sibyl’s Desk
Last week I went on vacation to Strömstad, which is a small town
on the Swedish West Coast. Sometimes going on holiday I use to
look for activities and so I did last Saturday, as there was no
weather for the beach. Approaching Strömstad by car, I’d recognized
an advertising poster about a Medical Health Fair taking place on
July 5 and 6, 2008, at 10:30 a.m. and 18:00 p.m. It seemed exciting
visiting the fair. I parked the car on the parking lot just outside
the entrance of the upper secondary school, where it was taking place.
At the entrance I asked the woman: “How much is it?” She answered:
“The entry is Swedish Crowns 100,-. I paid for the entrance and
stepped inside the premises.
I was lucky visiting the fair on Saturday, because there was a
running race in the city core, which was the reason, why there wasn’t
so many people attending the fair. It was very hot inside the premises,
but the atmosphere was calm. I was very interested in what they had
to offer, so I went around somewhat amused and curious having a look
and there she was. I recognized the woman’s face at once. The woman
was sitting in front of a desk offering her services, telling you about your
future and back-ground. Attending the Medical Health Fair last year
I’d visited her. Her name is Tina Taylor a professional medium. What
story was she going to tell me this time, the same or another one? The
sibyl glanced at me as if she recognized me. There was a great many
Norwegian people queuing up in front of her desk, eagerly to hear her
story-telling. I’d to put my name on a list to stipulate visiting-time.
At last it showed to be my turn. I paid Swedish Crowns 100, - for a
ten minute visit. During my visit at Tina’s desk, the sibyl’s desk, the
following dialogue was held:
The sibyl: “Instinctively, I think I know you. Have you been
visiting me before?”
I: “Yes, as a matter of fact I’ve and now I’m curious
about what story you’re going to tell me this time."
The sibyl: “How nice seeing you again. Would you please hold out
your hands and put them into mine. I'll tell you more
about your future as well as back-groung."
At the same time she closes her eyes being quite for
a long time before starting to speak again.
“As you see, I’ve got some Tarok-cards at the desk
in front of me. Now I’d like you to point out two of
them.”
I: “Yes, I choose the Tarok-card to the extreme left
and the other one to the extreme right.
The sibyl: “Historically, the Tarok-cards tell me, that in 1646
you were a woman clergyman at the profession,
who sentenced a lot of people to death for witchcraft.
People were burnt at the stake, even if there just was
a mere trifle, as for example a beautiful girl having a
small birth-mark at her left hip, which was to be
considered as a symbol for being a witch. At that time
people, was condemned even if being innocent. The
with-trial was often being started by envying and
questioning people. Then it was fulfilled by the priest
condemning the poor creature to death for witchery."
“Further, at the sixteenth century you entered a
monastery. Taking the vows you executed some really
good needlework, when giving aid to refugees. You did
a nice job very alike Mother Theresa’s and was well-
known for it.”
“In the end of the seventeenth century you were
working as a schoolteacher helping children to read
and write. As a teacher you were very popular among
the children, who loved you very much.”
I: “I see, that according to my back-ground I’ve been up
to a great deal of different thrilling roles. I find it an
awkward situation during the witchery having been
such a cruel person. You see, I like people very much,
being an emotional person. It was a sad story you’re
telling me. However, at that time it was different
as people weren’t as informed as they are today.”
The sibyl: “No, you’re quite right. At that time, there was a lot
of cruelty. How is your situation today? I see, that
you’ve got a lot of people around you at work. What
are you doing at work? Are you married?”
I: “I’m permanently employed at Telia handling claims.
I’m neither married or living together with somebody,
but I’ve got a friend.”
The sibyl: “Yes, the cards tell me, that you’re living separately,
but within soon he’ll ask you to marry him. At work
you’ve got contact with a lot of people helping them
with their problems. At Telia you’re working very hard
climbing up the stairs. Also, I see, that you’re under
stress at work. That’s why I’d like you to visit the
healer’s desk. Carl-Arne Nilsson, at the neighbour’s
desk, is a healer holding a diploma. He’ll give you a
piece of good advice getting rid of stress.”
I: “Thanks for holding your time. Is it O.K. if I continue
visiting Carl-Arne’s, the healer’s desk?”
The sibyl: “Thank you and hoping to see you next year!”
I: “Good buy!”
The healer:“Hello, how are you?”
I: “I’m fine thank you, but sometimes I’m feeling a
little under stress.”
The healer:“Yes, I feel you’re in a state under strain. I’ll help
you get rid of it.”
I: “That’s fine!”
The healer:“Now I’d like you to close your eyes and just relax
for some minutes. I’m going to put my hands on your
shoulders enabling you to feel the heat streaming
out of my hands. As you’ve got a very busy job, I’d
like you to take at least ten minutes of your time each
day for meditation. It will help you not being over-
strained at work.”
I: “I wonder how do I do meditating in a correct way
to achieve utmost relax?”
The healer:“You switch off the light, lightening a candle, putting
on soft music, while thinking about nothing at all for
about ten minutes per day. Just try to empty your
mind completely.”
I: “Thanks for instructing me how to handle and solve
the stress problem.”
The healer: “I’m now going to give you a hug wishing you good
luck with the meditation.”
I: “How much for your consulting time?”
The healer: “Swedish Crowns 100, - will do.”
I: “Thanks for keeping your time.”
The healer: “Good buy, hoping to see you next summer.”
I: “Good buy!”

stress at work. That’s why I’d like you to visit the
healer’s desk. Carl-Arne Nilsson, at the neighbour’s
desk, is a healer holding a diploma. He’ll give you a
piece of good advice getting rid of stress.”
I: “Thanks for holding your time. Is it O.K. if I continue
visiting Carl-Arne’s, the healer’s desk?”
The sibyl: “Thank you and hoping to see you next year!”
I: “Good buy!”
The healer:“Hello, how are you?”
I: “I’m fine thank you, but sometimes I’m feeling a
little under stress.”
The healer:“Yes, I feel you’re in a state under strain. I’ll help
you get rid of it.”
I: “That’s fine!”
The healer:“Now I’d like you to close your eyes and just relax
for some minutes. I’m going to put my hands on your
shoulders enabling you to feel the heat streaming
out of my hands. As you’ve got a very busy job, I’d
like you to take at least ten minutes of your time each
day for meditation. It will help you not being over-
strained at work.”
I: “I wonder how do I do meditating in a correct way
to achieve utmost relax?”
The healer:“You switch off the light, lightening a candle, putting
on soft music, while thinking about nothing at all for
about ten minutes per day. Just try to empty your
mind completely.”
I: “Thanks for instructing me how to handle and solve
the stress problem.”
The healer: “I’m now going to give you a hug wishing you good
luck with the meditation.”
I: “How much for your consulting time?”
The healer: “Swedish Crowns 100, - will do.”
I: “Thanks for keeping your time.”
The healer: “Good buy, hoping to see you next summer.”
I: “Good buy!”
