“ Yes, perhaps he will say that we set the
waterfall on his pigs 011 purpose.”
When we got home, there stood Father on
the door-steps and Soren, the niason, down in
the yard.
Oh! how Soren looked! He was wringing
his hands and crying and threatening. Father
liad a deep wrinkle between his eyes. That’s
always a sign that he is angry.
“ What is this I hear? Have you drowned
two young pigs of Soren’s? ”
“ The waterfall went into his pig-pen instead
of over our ground,” whimpered Karsten.
“ Explain how it happened,” said Father to
me; and I explained the whole of it exactly as
it was. I tell you it was lucky for us that we
had come down from the hilltop!
“ Here are ten crowns to pay for your little
pigs, Soren,” said Father, “ and I hope that
will make it all right between us.”
But for Karsten and me it wasn’t all right
by any means—for I had to break open my
savings-bank and pay Father back for the pigs.
