Ticket No. "9672" by Jules Verne

Author: Jules Verne | Published: 1886

Ticket No. "9672" Synopsis

Ticket No. "9672" is a novel by Jules Verne, first published in 1886. It tells the story of a young woman named Hulda who lives in a small Norwegian village with her brother Joel and their mother, Dame Hansen. Hulda's fiance, Ole Kamp, is a fisherman who has been away at sea for several months. One day, a lottery ticket arrives, addressed to Ole. The ticket has the number 9672, and it is worth much money.

Hulda is overjoyed, but her joy is short-lived. A few days later, a newspaper arrives with the news that Ole's ship has been lost at sea. Hulda is devastated, and she believes that Ole is dead. However, the lottery ticket gives her hope. She believes Ole will return to claim the prize money if he remains alive. The days pass, and Hulda waits anxiously for news of Ole. The lottery drawing is approaching, and Hulda must decide what to do with the ticket. If she doesn't claim the prize money, it will be forfeited. However, if she does claim the prize money, she will give up hope that Ole will return.

Excerpt from Ticket No. "9672" Online Book

"What time is it?" inquired Dame Hansen, shaking the ashes from her pipe, the last curling rings from which were slowly disappearing between the stained rafters overhead.

"Eight o'clock, mother," replied Hulda.

"It isn't likely that any travelers will come to-night. The weather is too stormy."

"I agree with you. At all events, the rooms are in readiness, and if any one comes, I shall be sure to hear them."
