The Book of Dreams and Ghosts

"On
the
third
day
a
priest
went
with
them,
but
Glam
was
not
be
found,
although
they
searched
for
him
all
day.
The
priest
refused
to
go
a
second
time,
and
the
shepherd
was
found
at
once
when
the
priest
was
not
present.
So
they
gave
over
their
attempts
to
take
him
to
the
church,
and
buried
him
on
the
spot.
"Soon
after
this
they
became
aware
that
Glam
was
not
lying
quiet,
and
great
damage
was
done
by
him,
for
many
that
saw
him
fell
into
a
swoon,
or
lost
their
reason.
Immediately
after
Yule
men
believed
that
they
saw
him
about
the
farm
itself,
and
grew
terribly
frightened,
so
that
many
of
them
ran
away.
After
this
Glam
began
to
ride
on
the
house-top
by
night,
{259}
and
nearly
shook
it
to
pieces,
and
then
he
walked
about
almost
night
and
day.
Men
hardly
dared
to
go
up
into
the
valley,
even
although
they
had
urgent
business
there,
and
every
one
in
the
district
thought
great
harm
of
the
matter.
"In
spring,
Thorhall
got
new
men,
and
started
the
farm
again,
while
Glam's
walkings
began
to
grow
less
frequent
as
the
days
grew
longer.
So
time
went
on,
until
it
was
mid-summer.
That
summer
a
ship
from
Norway
came
into
Huna-water
(a
firth
to
the
north
of
Thorhall-stead),
and
had
on
board
a
man
called
Thorgaut.
He
was
foreign
by
birth,
big
of
body,
and
as
strong
as
any
two
men.
He
was
unhired
and
unmarried,
and
was
looking
for
some
employment,
as
he
was
penniless.
Thorhall
rode
to
the
ship,
and
found
Thorgaut
there.
He
asked
him
whether
he
would
enter
his
service.
Thorgaut
answered
that
he
might
well
do
so,
and
that
he
did
not
care
much
what
work
he
did.
