"It is too late, Herr Pastor," said the latter; "the man is dead. But go in and speak to the wife, and I will wait for you. Here is twenty kroner, which you can give her; the expenses of the funeral I will bear, and I can arrange that she shall receive ten kroner weekly, through the post-office, until they can help themselves."
For you are on the right side and have thousands of kroner on which you can draw a bill. It would be still worse if you owed money to others!" "I haven't much more time," said Lasse, raising himself on his elbows. "Perhaps not, you and I, for those who start on the pilgrimage must die in the desert! But for that reason we are God's chosen people, we poor folk.
It would have been an act of charity to give him this money in case his mother could not. He could have added another field to his land then. "Look here, Petra why don't you give Nikolai the two hundred kroner he needs for fodder for a horse?" "And four hundred to buy the horse," she muttered. "That makes six." "I haven't got such a lot of six hundred kroners lying about."
"But the support you were giving it was ten thousand kroner a week, and now we shall have to do without it! Your action may have incalculable consequences for us. You must put an end to this, father-in-law! You must see that the majority doesn't have its way." "That would be diplomatic, wouldn't it? But you seem anxious to side with our opponents!
Then they wouldn't shout 'Hurrah! when he appears!" she cried scornfully. "I have still ten kroner will you take them?" said Pelle, handing her the money. She took it hesitating. "You must need that for your wife and children that must be your share of your strike pay!" "I have no wife and children now. Take it!" "Good God! Has your home gone to pieces too? Couldn't even Pelle keep it together?
This had the required effect, and one krone made its appearance. But on Solem's taking the noble lord by the shoulder and exerting a little pressure, two kroner were at last forthcoming. At length a conducted party arrived. Many tongues, both sexes, huntsmen, fishermen, dogs, mountaineers, porters.
And I'll have a better sort of trunk that journey." As they say good-bye, Sivert thrusts something into his brother's hand, a bit of something wrapped in paper. "What is it?" asks Eleseus. "Don't forget to write often," says Sivert. And so he goes. Eleseus opens the paper and looks; 'tis the gold piece, twenty-five Kroner in gold. "Here, don't!" he calls out. "You mustn't do that!"
"I'll soon have that brought along!" said the man, and he answered everything with a jolly "I'll soon arrange that; you just leave that to me!" When three days had gone by, he presented Pelle with a circumstantial account, which amounted exactly to five and twenty kroner. It was a curious chance that Pelle had just that amount of money.
But this other way would cost a terrible lot of money." "Not counting the well that you'll have to have in any case; the whole installation, with work and material, ought not to come to more than a couple of hundred Kroner," said I. The priest looked surprised. "Is that all?" "Yes." I waited a little each time before answering, as if I were slow by nature, and born so.
He noticed everything. One of the strangers came up. "Now then, let's get this matter settled and have done with it," he said. They all went into the new building again, and Isak's four thousand Kroner were counted out. Geissler was given a paper, which he thrust into his pocket as if it were of no value at all.
