He announced that the new German master would come tomorrow.

These words of M. Hame were like a peal of thunder to franz and others thought that they hardly know to write french. They felt that they would never learn french quite seriously. Books, seemed such a nuisance a short while ago-so-heavy to Carry, his grammer and his story of Saints. They seems that Mr. Hamel wanted to give his pupil all the he had. After finishing his last lecture they are firm determined to learn their language as they know it was a key to their freedom from slavery.
