Thad Stevens was the implacable
foe of President Andrew johnson,
worked for the abortive impeach-
ment resolution. He also fought
Lincoln's policies, regarded Southern
Democrats as unregenerate mon
sters. To this Pennsylvania legis-
lator the War Between the States
offered the opportunity to free the
slaves, to punish the South. to crush
It's aristocracy. He first came into
the national consciousness from

State legislation to outlaw Free Ma

Thad Stevens had a well developed
sense of humor. On his deathbed an
old friend was commiserating on his
wan appearance. ut is not my ap-
pearance. but my disappearance that
troubles me-" he replied.
One of the best of the Lincoln
anecdotes concerns his enmity for
congressional colleague, Simon Cam

quired Lincoln facetiously. mo, I
don't think he would steal red hot
stove" was the reply. The President
told the story to Cameron, who saw
no humor in it, demanded an
apology. Stevens went to the White
House. "Mr. Lincoln, why did you
tell Cameron what 1 said to you?"
The Emancipator answered: Il
thought it was very good joke,
and I didn't think it would make
him angry" Well. retorted
Stevens, che is very mad and made
me promise to retract. I will now
do so. I believe I told you he would
not steal a red hot stove. I now
take that back"

become marksmen's targets in
the early morning darkness;
those that had not yet been
given rifles went TO the general
store where guns were being
doled out by Solveig Brogge and
old Malken himself. Behind all
the sober sense of tremendous
things impending. a current ran
through the entire crowd of re-
lief and JOY and almost festive
ness. For the first time in
months the villagers were all to-
gether, with the old, familiar
taste of freedom in their mouths
The sentries lay dead in the
snow. The boats rode free on
their chains. The houses stood
free and protected by 800 guns.
Men laughed al each other in the
dark, and looked at the whole,
bleak, fish-smelling village as
if for the first time in their
lives il belonged to them. Einar
and Oluf came jubilantly in
from the blockhouse, carrying
a dozen automatic rifles over
their shoulders.
"Ho, no." they cried, "see
what we have here" and told
how they had crept up on the
unsuspecting soldiers in the
dark, flung hand grena d e S
through the open door and run
in after them to slaughter the
guard before there was time for
the Germans to fire shot.
Gunnar, in the store, listened
to Osterholm's hurried account
of how the land lay. To the
south, beyond the blockhouse
and the farm, Trygve had de-
stroyed the bridge leading over
the ford, and was blocking the
road with small body of men.
To the west lay the docks, the
point, and the gun battery, all
of them in Norwegian hands.

who was holding the road on
that side of the village.
Solveig and Frida Malken,
while the rifles were still '.e-
ing handed out, went up to the
kitchen and brought down hot
bowls of soup to be distributed.
"Men fight better on warm
stomachs," was Solveigs only
comment.
There was no time for talk.
All around, the men and wom-
en- were working, at the food
cleaning the rifles, filling belts
for the machine guns, the doctor
laying out bottles, bandages and
syringes for the wounded.

They tiptoed after her down the

finite patience and slowness she
took hold of a knob, turned it,
and pulled open the door. Down
at the foot of 4 flight of stairs
one dim light was showing. A
