The Bane Of Thorkel Toothgnasher.
Afterwards, in the spring, Thorkel Toothgnasher set out to find Bersi and to seek Steingerd's goods again.

Bersi said that his burden was heavy enough to bear, even though both together underwent the weight of it.

"And I shall not pay the money!" said he.
Said Thorkel, "I bid thee to the holmgang at Orrestholm beside Tjaldanes (Tentness)." "That ye will think hardly worth while," said Bersi, "such a champion as you are; and yet I undertake for to come." So they came to the holme and fell to the holmgang.

Thord carried the shield before Bersi, and Vali was Thorkel's shield-bearer.
