CHAPTER XIII
OLE ANA’S CLOCK
At Gooclfields, the houses for the farm
la-borers are up in the forest. Towards
Good-fields itself, the forest is thick and dark, hut up
where it has been eleared, willows and alders
grow in clunips, and there are tiny little fields
and still smaller potato patches, belonging to
each sun-scorched hut with its turf roof and
Windows of greenish glass. From the clearing
you can look upward to the mountains, or
downward, over the thick pines and through
the leafy trees, to the smooth, shining fjord.
All the huts for the farm-hands were full to
running over with children. In Henrik-hut
there were nine, in Steen-hut eight, and in
North-hut eleven; and they were all
tow-headed and bare-footed and all had mouths
stained with blueberries.
