If I succeed in finding them, would you wish to restore to them a child educated in a village, and deprived of this education, without which he will feel out of place among his kindred? It is not reasonable; and you are too sensible not to understand it." Mr. Hersebom hung his head: without his being aware of it, two large tears rolled down his cheeks.
A large yellow dog begged so earnestly to go with them, that at length they yielded. It was Kaas, the Greenland dog that Mr. Hersebom had brought back with him, after a voyage to Cape Farewell.
Erik resolved to examine carefully their whole domain, and to make his abode on the most massive portion; the one that seemed capable of offering the greatest resistance. He also determined to transport to this spot their depot of provisions. It was with this resolve that Mr. Hersebom and Erik continued their exploration of the western coast, after resting a few minutes at the northerly point.
"The cannon of the 'Alaska! We are saved!" cried Erik, jumping up and climbing a hummock to get a better view of the sea that surrounded them. He saw nothing at first but the icebergs, driven by the wind and sparkling in the sunshine. But Mr. Hersebom, who had immediately reloaded his gun, fired into the air, and a second discharge from the cannon answered him almost immediately.
Malarius also; you will find that he is of my opinion." "I do not doubt it," answered the fisherman, with a sad smile. He shook the hand which Dr. Schwaryencrona held out to him, and went away looking very thoughtful. That evening before dinner the doctor again directed his steps toward the dwelling of Mr. Hersebom.
Tudor Brown, white with rage and terror, insisted that the dog's brains should be blown out. Mr. Hersebom, who had come to the rescue, protested warmly against such a project. The commander arriving at this moment, settled the matter by desiring Tudor Brown to put away his revolver, and decreeing that henceforth Kaas must be kept chained.
She hardly deigned to cast a glance at Erik, who stood modestly aside. The doctor returned her caresses, and shook hands with his housekeeper, then he made a sign for Erik to advance. "Kajsa, and Dame Greta, I ask your friendship for Erik Hersebom, whom I have brought from Norway with me!" he said, "and you, my boy, do not be afraid," he said kindly.
Malarius, and was agreeably surprised to see Dame Hersebom, and Vanda, who had come to bid him farewell. They were modestly intending to go to a hotel in the town, but the doctor insisted that they should come and stay with him, to the great displeasure of Kajsa, who did not think that they were sufficiently distinguished. Vanda was now a tall girl, whose beauty fulfilled its early promise.
Soon they saw the dog reach the island, and bound, while he uttered loud howls, toward what appeared to be a human form lying extended upon the sand. They made all possible haste, and soon saw beyond a doubt that it was a man who was lying there, and this man was Mr. Hersebom; bloody, pale, cold, inanimate dead, perhaps. Kaas was licking his hands, and uttering mournful cries.
I therefore expect that you will return quietly to your supper, and leave to your superior officers the task of determining what is best to do!" The firmness with which he spoke had the effect of reassuring the most timid, and they all descended again. Erik then called Mr. Hersebom and asked him to untie his good dog Kaas, and follow him without making any noise.
