You must find her before the next rehearsal. I must have plenty of time to train her, for her appearance is of grave importance as you young ladies can yourselves see." "Oh, dear me!" groaned Nellie Agnew, when the rehearsal was finished. "And Margit Salgo would have been just the one!" "And the poor girl certainly would have enjoyed being one of us," Laura said.
"And there's the stone house in Mora over the cellar where Margit Larsson hid him when the Danish soldiers were close on his track," added Birger. "The inscription says:
