"By the way, I must go away again to-morrow, little sister," said Joel.
"Go away again to-morrow!" repeated Hulda.
"Yes, early in the morning.

On leaving the Hardanger I was informed by a comrade that a traveler, coming from the north by way of the Rjukanfos would arrive to-morrow." "Who is this traveler ?" "I don't know his name, but I must be on hand to conduct him to Dal." "Ah, well! go, then, as there is no help for it," replied Hulda, with a sigh.
"Yes, I must start to-morrow at sunrise.

Do you really feel so badly about it, Hulda ?" "Yes, brother, I feel much more unhappy when you leave me, even if it is only for a few hours." "Ah, well, this time I shall not go alone." "Why, who is to accompany you ?" "You, little sister.

You need diversion, and I am going to take you with me." "Oh, thank you, Joel, thank you!".
