故宮曾於北溝佇足16年，故宮工作人員與北溝產生了不解之緣，有 與地方人士通婚者，北溝村人也有進入故宮服務者。本文透過面訪、電 訪等方式，訪問了這些當事人、遺孀或第二代，為這些北溝村人進入故 宮服務，或與北溝人聯姻者，從無到有為之建立傳記。全文區分三部分： 一、「北溝故宮」時期進入服務，計有7人；二、「北溝故宮」職工和北 溝姑娘締結良緣，計有3人；三、「臺北故宮」時期進入服務，計有2人。 他們學歷不高，多為基層技工，但正是因為有它們的認真付出，使故宮 這個博物館得以順利運作，將千年文物展現於世人面前，故以「一抹微 光」形容之。

The Palace museum once was situated in Beigou for a time span of sixteen years. During that time local people got involved with the museum because they were employed there. This paper tells the story of these employees based on interviews held with people concerned. The paper is divided in three parts: The first part is concerned with people who directly served in the Palace museum, the second part is based on the experiences of the spouses of those working in the Palace museum, the third part is concerned with people serving at the Taipei site of the Palace museum. These three different groups contributed to the safe passage of the national treasures to Taipei and thus are described as a gleam (of hope).
