The Danish warship, the frigate Jylland could not go
close enough towards the shore when it needed supplies, and there just was not
a suitable port nearby. So they sent a “kadrejer” out with the goods ordered.
Moreover, it was our first sailing vessel, as also was
fitted with a motor, which made it superior to what maneuverability concerned.
In Battle by Helgoland in 1864 was one of Count
Tramp’s legs shot over. Leg stump were dipped in boiling tar to close the wound
and stop the bleeding. Later he got a primitive wooden leg.
The count died in Niels Sandborgs home in Sebbersund,
where he was cared for to the very last. He lived his heyday in Kyø Castle,
located in a forest not far from Sebber church and Sebberkloster.
The painting is made accordance a calendar sheet from
the Skagen Museum, which is situated in the top of Jutland, Denmark.
