Can anyone help with reading the last column of entry #1 on this page? https://urn.digitalarkivet.no/URN:NBN:no-a1450-kb20050519010507.jpg.    Data is for Andersen-8117.

Alas, I can't help you on figuring out the text in the "out of wedlock" entry.  Eyes too old. But...

A Norwegian cousin recently recommended I use links like the one below instead of the jpg you referenced: "SAT, Ministerialprotokoller, klokkerbøker og fødselsregistre - Sør-Trøndelag, 685/L0965: Ministerialbok nr. 685A06 /3, 1846-1859, s. 59 #1. Brukslenke for sidevisning: https://www.digitalarkivet.no/kb20050519010507  "

This link allows the reviewer to magnify the entry over a large range if needed. Alternately she/he can page around to compare the writing style for letters/words across as many pages as needed to figure out what a letter or word actually is.  

Best wishes - Jim

With due reservations for the faded and cramped handwriting: "Opgivet af Faderen selv. Hands 2det og hendes 1ste Lejermaal." (Reported by the father himself. His second child out of wedlock and her first.)

And I totally agree with Jim: Please use the "Quick link", rather than a link to the raw jpg file.

Thanks for the translation.

I have been using the "permanent link" with the intent that it survive any eventual changes made to how stuff is stored. It's a trade off on usability.  You can still zoom and scroll in the link without any loss of data, it is just a bit easier in the Brukslenke.
If you compare the two links, you'll see that the sequence  "kb20050519010507" is the same in both. That is the actual image id, and it will always stay the same. Thus, it makes no difference permanence-wise if you copy one link or the other.

The Digitalarkivet at first had a link system that showed obvious weaknesses after some time, and it was replaced some years ago with the present one. There's no reason to believe that the current system will be changed anytime soon. And, in any case, the image id will always be preserved and be accessible in some form.
