The Sacks of Farmers and Cavalry-Holders in Helsinge

Nyland · Finland · Site of legend

A sack burst as it was carried, and so the cavalry-farms lie thickest in Malm.

In Helsinge they tell that the Swedish king sent a man with two sacks, one full of farmers and one of cavalry-holders, to name the estates. At the Gammelstad river he landed and drove on, but the sack of cavalry-holders burst at Malm and they spilled out along the road. That is why such farms lie thickest there, sparser in Sibbo and Borgå, and in Mörskom he left only the last two.
