Why?

[frualeydis]

Today I'm not writing, but instead going through records from the magistrate in the swedish town Arboga in the 16th century. It's mostly fornication, violence and incredibly boring stuff about sale of properties. I'm looking for things about clothes and fabric of course. I find some, but the lasting effect is questions like "why would anyone climb over someone's roof, into his yard, kill his pig and then dump it in the river?"
