Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The History of the Dwelling-House and Its Future
Some eighty years ago a young Lutheran clergyman, the Rev. Eilert Sundt, was giv ing religious instructions to a class of prisoners in the House of Correction at Christiania in Norway. His attention was drawn to one member of the class, who was a marked contrast to the tall, f air-haired and blue-eyed Norsemen. This man was of short stature, with dark hair and black eyes. He was very forward in answering the ques tions Mr. Sundt put to the class, but he generally answered them wrongly. When the instruction was finished the young chap lain took the man apart, and asked him who and what he was. He found that this was one of the Fante-folk, as the Norwegians.
