When I came away from home, Mr.
Bickel asked me to look about here and find out what sort of factories there were in this neighborhood, and send him word so that he might know whether he could form any business relations with them.

I have not been able to do anything about it.

Perhaps you could go and visit the factory, and then write to Mr.Bickel about it" "I always said you were the cleverest girl in the world," cried Oscar, with delight; for he saw the way now clear before him.

That afternoon, when they all went out to the court-yard and garden for their out-door games, he ran off to the factory.

The dwelling-house stood not far from the canal, surrounded by a pretty flower-garden.
