Q. Will you describe the configuration and action of Holm's screw? A. First, then, the screw increases in the direction of its length, and this increase is very rapid at the following edge, so that, in fact, the following edge stands in the plane of the shaft, or in the vertical longitudinal plane of the vessel.
No mistake: he had a goodish way to go a long, long way. But get there he would. One day Klaus happened to mention, quite casually, where Colonel Holm's widow lived, and late one evening Peer made his way out there, and cautiously approached the house.
"But she wasn't altogether stupid either," said Thatcher Holm's wife. "For instance when she had Fair Maria in to do housemaid's work, so that he could have a pretty face to look at at home. She knew that if you have food at home you don't go out for it. But of course it all led to nothing when she couldn't leave off frightening him out of the house with her crying and her drinking."

"Yes, I've been once, twice, three times before this to the harbor," said Holm, "but I've never managed to see the steamer. They tell me wonderful things of it; they say all our crops are taken to Copenhagen in the steamer nowadays." "It's lying here to-day," said Pelle eagerly. "This evening it goes out." Holm's eyes beamed. "Then I shall be able to see the beggar!
A. The diameter is 7 feet and the pitch 14 feet. The propeller is Holm's conchoidal propeller. Its diameter is smaller than is advisable, being limited by the draught of water of the vessel; and the vessel was required to have a small draught of water to go over a bar. This engine makes, under favorable circumstances, 100 strokes per minute.

Well, that might stand as it was, for the bulk of Peer's money was tied up in Ferdinand Holm's company. A few days after he carried Merle off to the capital, leaving the carpenters and painters hard at work at Loreng. One day he was sitting alone at the hotel in Christiania Merle was out shopping when there was a very discreet knock at the door. "Come in," called Peer.
He had not entirely given up thoughts of Karna yet, but he had promised Thatcher Holm's wife ten krones down if she could find some one that would do for him. He had really put the whole matter out of his head as an impossibility, and had passed into the land of old age; but what was the use of shutting yourself in, when you were all the time looking for doors through which to slip out again?
Then there is Griffith's screw, which has a large ball at its centre, which, by the suction it creates at its hinder part, in passing through the water, produces a converging force, which partly counteracts the divergent action of the arms. Finally, there is Holm's screw, which has now been applied to a good number of vessels with success.
