Went to Denmark, then what?
I am looking to find out what happened to Nils Lassesson L7MV-1PX. In ArkivDigital, it looks like he went to Denmark, maybe in 1858. I can't read what the text at the far right says - did he marry? Here is a link to the ArkivDigital document: Ahus AI:10 p 418; he is next to the bottom of the first group. (Nils Lassesson/Larsson born 1834-05-21 Ahus)

Hello @lindastowemiller
The text over the next to last five columns is:
Uttog ordentlig betyg d. 2 Sept. 1858 till Danmark
Translation: Received proper certificate on 2 September 1858 to Denmark
The text in the last column is:
Stämd för äktenskapslöfte åt pig. Gunil Andersdr. Rest till Danmark 55 utan betyg. Uppgifven adress Aarhus Möllaren Måns Nielssen
Translation: Sued for promise of marriage to maid Gunil Andersdotter. Travelled to Denmark [18]55 without certificate. Stated address [was] Aarhus [at the] miller Måns Nielssen

There are 2 separate comments on the far right. The left remark says he "took a proper certificate (permission to move) on 2 Sept 1858 to Denmark".
The the right remark preceded the one on the left. It says that he was "engaged to marry maid Gunil Andersd(otter). He traveled to Denmark in (18)55 without a certificate. The address he gave was in Aarhus (with) the miller Måns Nielsson".
The move-out column in your record gives the parish in Aarhus he was moving to. It is Trige parish. There is, in Trige, Aarhus in the 1860 Danish census, a young man who may be your Nils Lasson. It says he was born in 1834 in Sweden. He is here: https://www.danishfamilysearch.com/cid8757197. Niels Larsen would be the Danish version of his name, Nils Larsson. I gather from your question that you are aware that his name should be Nils Lassesson (or Lasson) and I agree with that. His birth record gives his father's name as Lasse and the record in your link above shows his name as Lasson, not Larsson.
However, if that is him, he didn't remain in Denmark. There is a Nils Larsson in the 1861-1866 Household Examination records in Kiaby parish who is definitely your Nils Lasson (Lassesson). That record is here (top entry): https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0060695_00073#?c=&m=&s=&cv=72&xywh=98%2C298%2C7643%2C3571. He is born on the same date (21 May 1834) and in the same place (Yngsiö) as your Nils Lasson. This records reports that he came from page 118 in the previous book.
Looking at the record on page 118 we find the exact same note about being engaged to Gunild Andersdotter and going to Denmark on 2 Sept 1858: https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0060694_00135#?c=&m=&s=&cv=134&xywh=-34%2C57%2C6369%2C2976.
It doesn't appear from any of these records that he ever married Gunil(d) Andersdotter!
The 1861-1866 Household Record also says that he has moved to Denmark on 5 September 1861. So, basically, we are back where we started with your question-"What happened to Nils?"
He doesn't show up in any more index searches in ArkivDigital nor does he show up in the Swedish Death Book.
