Väinö Halma

Martti's father and the owner of the Harma mansion. According to Uris, it seems that Uris' father and Väinö's grandfather are cousins. He was stingy in the beginning, but later he became very fond of Katri and became kind to the Ukonniemi family. He said that it was thanks to Katri that Martti started studying, and as a reward, he gave Martti 10 rubles, which is equivalent to one year's salary at the Räikkölä mansion, and gave it to Katri. Katri was also very surprised by this. Among his acquaintances, the Harma family's beer is famous for its good taste.
