Translation of the text:
"The year 1676 Denmark declared war against Sweden. The prize was Scania, Halland and Blekinge which for eighteen years had belonged to Sweden. In that countryside some wanted once again to belong to their old country, and some of those went in armed companies to the woodlands, sometimes together with renegades of all sorts. The Danes called them patriots, the Swedes called them traitors. Otherwise they were called 'friskyttar' or know by a name common from earlier wars in this border conflict, 'snapphanar'."
