1. BEGINNING OF HAKON HERDEBREID.

Hakon, King Sigurd's son, was chosen chief of the troop which had

followed King Eystein, and his adherents gave him the title of king. He

was ten years old. At that time he had with him Sigurd, a son of

Halvard Hauld of Reyr, and Andreas and Onund, the sons of Simon, his

foster-brothers, and many chiefs, friends of King Sigurd and King

Eystein; and they went first up to Gautland. King Inge took possession

of all the estates they had left behind, and declared them banished.

Thereafter King Inge went to Viken, and was sometimes also in the north

of the country. Gregorius Dagson was in Konungahella, where the danger

was greatest, and had beside him a strong and handsome body of men, with

which he defended the country.
