Don't forget to pray, when the day begins, and when it ends, and the dear Lord will not forget you, and His protection is better than that of men." So Toni started off with his little bundle behind the herd up the mountain. Immediately after this Elsbeth closed her cottage. She took the goat up to the Matten farm.
So on Saturday night after the day's work was ended and she sat down with Toni to their scanty supper, she said once more: "Toni, now we must take a decided step; I think it is best for me to go up to the Matten farm to-morrow." "Oh, Mother, don't do that!" said Toni quite beseechingly. "Don't go to the farmer!
Augustus Frothingham and Miss Frothingham ask audience, your Highness," he announced clearly. Prince Tabnit turned swiftly. "Whom do you say, Matten?" he questioned and when the boy had repeated the names, meditated briefly.
At the right time she laid aside her hoe, tied on a clean apron, and said: "Finish the hoeing, Toni; then you can milk the goat and give her some fresh straw, so she will have a better bed. Then I will be back again." She went up to the Matten farm. The farmer was standing in the open barn-door gazing with satisfaction at his beautiful cows, wandering in a long procession to the well.
She immediately started on her way home, for she wanted to get everything in order before Toni came down from the mountain. She never thought but that he was still up there, and had no suspicion of all that had happened. When she reached home, she went at once to the Matten farm to enquire for Toni and to bring the goat home.
She would have had no objection to this, but knew no way to bring it about, and she had known the farmer up on the Matten farm ever since her husband had worked there, and ever since his death, from time to time he had sent her a little wood or meal. She hoped that he would employ Toni at first for light tasks in the field, so that he would gradually learn to do the heavier work.
