Perhaps the good professor who brought us together had plotted to have both novel and novelist make their impression at once upon the youthful sub-editor; but at any rate they did not fail of an effect. I believe it was that chapter where Gunnar and Ragnhild dance and sing a 'stev' together, for I associate with that far happy time the rich mellow tones of the poet's voice in the poet's verse.
Relieved relieved the Captain was to hear it. As he was leaving he told Ragnhild to say I was not to go away from Ovrebo till he returned. No, I didn't go away. I worked on, tramped through the weariest days of my life to their end, and finished laying the pipes.
And was she walking about half undressed? No, but Captain Bror was, and Fruen clapped her hands and cried "Bravo!" And the engineer as well. It was one as bad as the other. And Ragnhild had just taken in two more bottles of wine, though they were drunk already. "Come over with me and you can hear them yourself," said Ragnhild. "They're up in Fruen's room now." "No," I said. "I'm going to bed.
But I persisted, and an accident soon occurred which resulted in the breaking down of this great barrier I heard the story of Ragnhild Kaata. In 1890 Mrs. Lamson, who had been one of Laura Bridgman's teachers, and who had just returned from a visit to Norway and Sweden, came to see me, and told me of Ragnhild Kaata, a deaf and blind girl in Norway who had actually been taught to speak. Mrs.
Gone down, grown poorer year by year, no doubt, drunken guests doing their share to help, and idleness and indifference and childlessness for the rest. In the evening, Ragnhild came to me and told me she was given notice; Fruen had made some reference to me, and that was all. Once more a piece of underhand work. Fruen knew well I should not be long on the place; why not make me the scapegoat?
Would you mind going up to his place and bringing it down for me?" I said I would with pleasure. "Lars won't be home again till about eleven. So you need not start for a long time yet." Very good. "And when you get back, just give the letter to Ragnhild."
'Light a candle and pick up all this host of buttons I've upset, she said. And then she called out to the Captain in his room. I lit the candle and began picking up buttons; dozens of them there were, all sorts. The Captain came in. 'I only wanted to tell you, says Fruen at once, 'that it was kind of you to send Ragnhild after me to-day.
He had not managed to free himself from Ragnhild's watchfulness; she was still there, to be close at hand when he was talking to Elisabet in some corner, or making towards the summer-house late in the evening to sit there with some one undisturbed. So he tried another way, and began making himself agreeable to that same Ragnhild. Oho!
The post card had been delayed it was Thursday already. And this time it was fortunate, really, that Ragnhild happened to look at the post card and see what it said. We stayed sitting in Nils's room, talking about the Captain what he would say when he got back, and what we should say, or if we ought to say anything at all. All three of the maids were present at this council.
And if this place up in the woods were our clearing, then she would have the children, and the cows, and the pig. But my copper things I prefer to do myself, Ragnhild. I remember a lady, the mistress of a house: she did no work at all, and saw to nothing, least of all to herself. And ill she fared in the end.
