Bjornson refuses to be downed by the
defenders of the honor of Premier Johan
Sverdrup, who died number of years
ago. Bjornson not only publishes letters
written by Sverdrup and Richter in 1885
to prove his point, but he brands Sver-
| drup as one of the most treacherous crea-
lures that the poet had ever met.
