At the courthouse, trials were conducted, and people were either acquitted or convicted of their crimes. It was common for individuals to be subjected to public humiliation.

On that day, Johannes Svensson Färm, a naval artilleryman and loom shuttle maker, was beheaded after being convicted of murder.
