Maude V. White in Medstügan, Sweden - the 1880's
from Friends and Memories, pages 283-84:
They passed through Medstügan one day, and a tiny little woman belonging to the company came to the cottage where DD. [Miss Edith Balfour] and I were staying. We were in the garden, and she saw one of the guitars lying on a bench near us. She picked it up eagerly and brought it to us.
“Play, play! ” she said in Swedish.
I took it up and said to DD., “Let us sing her that little German Volkslied, ‘Verlassen, Verlassen.’”
