Execution Omen

On the border between Skog and Ullånger is an old execution site. An old man from this village, who died this winter, had an adventure at that place. The old man's name was Jöns Karlström. – One evening in his younger years, he came riding that way. Just as he reached the execution site, he saw a carriage standing by the roadside. In the vehicle sat three people, and beside it stood a man with a large, gleaming axe. The horse shied, so he almost couldn't get it to move forward, even though the road was clear. He himself felt severely ill shortly afterwards. – Not long after, an execution took place at the site. He believed that the vision was a premonition of this. He himself told me about this, and he wasn't one to exaggerate or lie.
