Gus Moeller Thrane who was known

the most radical writer's and thinkers
of his day. The little daughter and
her three sisters and brother lived
10 stirring times in Norway for in
l848 came the great revolutionary
period in Europe and it was then that
her father became most active in his
work for the peasantry of his country.
He was an editor of q workingman'
newspaper and organizer of working
mems clubs and his activity in these
lines finally got him into such trouble
with the authorities that be was
thrown into prison. During the
eleven years he spent as q POLITICAL
prisoner his little daughters had
many exciting experiences. Their
mother managed to communicate with
their father sufficiently to be enabled
to continue the publication of the
workingmen's newspaper and the
children we're often made the mes.
sengers between parents. Also at one
time two of the girls went before tho
king and prayed for their fathers
release which was not granted. The
mother died before the release came
and when yhrane was free he took his
children and came to America. They
settled at Chicago in 1864 and it was
