- 33 - He said, "That is good." I slept in the little room by the meeting room which was at one end of the dwelling house. So they had a fire in the meeting room and opened the door to my little room to warm it up. I lived in these two rooms; and they brot my meals to me. It was quiet and nice and I said, "I did not know there was such a nice quiet place for me in Norway." The weather was cold and damp. It rained nearly every day, and nearly all day until after the eclipse of the sun: which took place in the latter part of Seventh-month. After that we had more sunshine, but very frequent rains. Mamma had a bad cold which got worse after coming to Roiseland. And a very sore throat developed: so that she stayed with me in the meeting room, not daring to go out. Ingeborg and Bergine came over to see us the first morning. And in the evening George came over. I forgot to say we stopped and talked to Osmund and Martin on our way to Uncle's. I enjoyed the new and cute sight of the girls going about their work with head shawls tied on their heads. These they wore all summer whilst at work out
