Question

Answer the following question in 30 - 40 words:
Why did the peddler leave a Christmas gift for Edla ?

Answer 1

The iron master’s daughter had genuinely offered warmth and goodness to the peddler. Even after knowing the true identity about the peddler she wanted him to stay with them on Christmas Eve and enjoy a day of peace. Edla’s hospitality and kindness transformed the peddler completely. He decided to mend his wrong ways and return the thirty kronors that he had stolen. So he wrapped the notes and a rattrap in a package and left them with a note addressed to Edla.
