"The Helmdrup smith was also interested in witchcraft. After he came home after being out practicing, and people asked him what he'd been doing, he would gladly answer-I've been out witching-- But why do you answer like that when you don't believe in witches yourself? his neighbor asked him once-Well, when I say things like that, people don't ask any more and then I don't have to give long explanations... A great deal suggests that Niels Mikkelsen was not as dismissive of witchcraft as the exchange of words with his neighbor might have us believe.. When he got angry...he would threaten to bewitch people"
