Can someone translate this?

Can someone translate entry number one, Christen (son of Else Kristensdr)? This is the brother of my 3rd-great grandfather. I can't read it very well. I would love it if someone could read the whole thing, but I am especially interested in who the father is and where he is from. I suspect it is not my 4th-great grandfather, and that Christen might actually be my ancestor's half-brother. Thanks so much!

The fourth column lists the parents and it reads (as near as I can tell):
Parents Maid Else Kristensdatter, servant with farmer Kristen Bak in Aagard. The alleged father is Christian Arendal from ? (could be an abbreviation for Nørgaard, but I can't be certain).

I believe it says the father is Christian Arendal(it's a city) from Norway. (Norge) This census shows Else a few years later, now married to Kristen Kristensen, but I do not believe he is the biological father of Christen b. 1828. https://www.danishfamilysearch.com/cid3339317 Else's child Ane Marie was also illegitimate. https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/en/billedviser?bsid=402959#402959,74555900

Thanks! Can you tell who the witnesses are?
I agree. I think either Else had illegitimate children with other men before marrying Kristen, or there was another Else Christensdatter living on the Aagaard Estate who had this child. I am still working on researching and trying to put the right pieces together. Thanks for your help!
