The fact is that Rachel is peculiar. She is not one
with us. She has been led astray--"
"Oh!" cried Henrik.
"She is not a bad girl--no, no; but she has been led away into a false
religion, and as she will talk and argue with us all, I thought it best
that she stay away from our home until she comes to her senses; but--"
"What is this religion that has caused her to err so badly?"
"Why, she calls herself a Latter-day Saint."
"What!"
"Yes; I've tried to reason with the girl, but it's been no use."
"I want to see her--now, today," said Henrik. "Give me her address."
"Shall I go with you?"
"No, I can find her,--you need not bother."
Henrik obtained the proper directions, and set out immediately. Was
there then one other of his family that had received the gospel--one
that could help him? He boarded a car, getting off at the store. Going
to the department in which she worked, he asked the floor-walker where
he could find Miss Bogstad. Then he saw her behind a counter, resting
for a moment, unoccupied.
