Mina and I hauled her up by the arms into the boat (page 22) [Frontispiece]
FACING PAGE
The dean took Peter by the left ear and dragged him away [40]
They just hauled and pulled me as hard as they could [68]
She told me the whole story of her life [80]
And how Karsten and Peter laughed down below! [110]
The only pleasant thing was that there came a tremendously big heavy snowslide right down on the little shoemaker [124]
She began to shriek and point and throw up her arms [152]
And smashed a window-pane with it [166]
"Oleana," said I, "we wanted to give you a clock" [184]
How we wandered,—round and round, up and down, hither and thither! [208]
The beautiful red cherries crackled in Billy-goat's mouth [236]
I stood on the barn steps with a long whip [260]
