grind-ramen, which is towards the gate-post, grind- 

 Stalpen. This socket-iron is driven in so that A B is 

 horizontal. For the lower gate-hook, instead of the 

 "driving-hook," there are two iron "knuckles," jam, 

 such as are represented in Fig. 3, driven into the gate- 

 post, side by side, and as far apart as the distance 

 between the sockets C and D in Fig. 2. Here, in Fig. 3, 

 M I and L R are the parts which are driven into the gate- 

 post, and that in such a way that G H, or the knuckle- 

 pin, comes to stand perpendicularly. 



When the gate hangs on the upper "driving-hook," 

 krokeu, Fig. i, then the socket or hollow, inbog- 

 ningen eller utholkningen, in Fig. 2 [T. I. p. 362], 

 which is between B and C fits on to the knuckle-pin, 

 G H, of one of the " knuckles " shown in Fig. 3, and the 

 other socket between D and A, Fig. 2, fits on to the 

 knuckle-pin, G H, of the other knuckle, Fig. 3, so that 

 each knuckle-pin, G H, always fits into its socket when 

 the gate is shut, nar grinden star igen. 



When one opens the gate, it rests with one of the 

 sockets, e.g., between B and C, Fig. 2, filled by the 

 knuckle-pin G H, of one of the knuckles, Fig. 3, while in 

 the same case, the other socket between D and A goes 

 away from the other knuckle, haken eller jarnet, 

 G H, and vice versa when the gate is opened, tages up, 

 the other way. 



Klinkan pa grinden, the latch of the gate, is like 

 an ordinary grind-klinka, gate-latch, but thick, 

 trubbig, at the end, and is set in the middle of the side 

 of the gate which faces the gate-post. 



Det jarn hvari klinkan faller, the "hapse," 

 "hasp," or "catch," into which the latch falls when 

 the gate is shut, is of the shape shown in Fig. 4, from 

 which jt is seen that the gate can be opened and shut 

 either way, because this "hapse" is fastened notch
