Reading Dødsfallsprotokoll

In the 1916 Dødsfallsprotokoll I find notes for my ancestors Anna Jonsen and Karl Johnsen who died in February just a few days apart. The had writing is a bit of a problem as well as Norwegian.

 

What was the purpose of the Dødsfallsprotokoll? It seems to be a listing of deaths and what happened to the survivers...????  Also the record keeper abbreviated some notes. the document has 4 columns:  a date, the person who died (name, age, location of death???, normal residence), other notations?????

column 2

Kone[crossed] Enke Anna Jonsen

42 aar gl. död 7 ds. 

i Hölandsgaten 6, bo

pal Hölandsgt 9.

 

This is the best transcription I can do.    I do not understand 7 ds.  and perhaps the bopal????. It appears to be place of death and then the normal residence (as we would put on a US death certificate). In the case of Anna it looks like she died across the street from her home. More questions.
