"One horse was 'no good.' When we came to a hill, and there were many of them, the men would get out and walk, which was the custom in Norway anyway when hauling loads with only one horse. And often times they would lend a hand by pushing on the load."
Excerpt from Sigrid's account of her journey to America, written in 1919.
