There is a degree of confidence exhibited towards strangers in Sweden, especially in hotels, at post-stations, and on board the inland steamers, which tells well for the general honesty of the people. We went on board the steamer Werner on the morning of the 8th, but first paid our passage two days afterwards, just before reaching Carlstad.
Torrance lounged round the corner of the table that separated them, but Werner had eyes only for Morani's hidden hand. " have decided that we must be freed from the yoke of bondage. We demand the right to control ourselves, under our own leaders " He saw the wall of the room rush toward him felt it strike him dizzy; and he lay wondering what had happened.
Werner answered for him: "He killed his employer." "O Lord!" wondered Tsiganok. "Why are such people allowed to kill?" For some time Tsiganok had been looking sideways at Musya; now turning quickly, he stared at her sharply, straight into her face. "Young lady, young lady! What about you? Her cheeks are rosy and she is laughing.
He hesitated and turned, now, and picked up the newspaper from the sitting-room sofa. Pa Werner, in trousers, shirt and suspenders, was padding about the kitchen with his pipe and tobacco. He came into the sitting room now and stood a moment, his lips twisted about the pipe-stem. The pipe's putt-putting gave warning that he was about to break into unaccustomed speech.
Following that, his staff was wrested from him by a dozen stout young fellows, who gave him no time to get his famous distance for defence against numbers; and he and Farina were marched forthwith to the chorusing body in front of Gottlieb Groschen's house. Of all the inmates, Gottlieb had slept most with the day on his eyelids, for Werner hung like a nightmare over him.

I was introduced to Otis Werner, the other day, and he told me a good deal about it. Werner is with one of the big concerns here the Continental, I think and he's a very nice and gentlemanly fellow. I'll introduce you to him, some time, and he'll tell you all the wonders of the motion picture business."
He was supposed to have been involved in conspiracies in Canada to destroy bridges, armories, and munition factories. He had offered his services to the British Government, but they were rejected. Later he was reported to have been shot or hanged in London as a spy. Another check payment by Captain von Papen was to Werner Horn for $700.
Right out Upon the public way it stands, and offers To all that pass an hospitable roof. TELL. Now, then, you have no further need of me. Enter yon house. 'Tis Werner Stauffacher's, A man that is a father to distress. See, there he is himself! Come, follow me. Scene changes. A common near Altdorf.
In order to keep patience I began to recall our courtship, remembering the first days, how we feared the conscription and the drawing of the unlucky number, with its "fit for service;" the old guard Werner, at the mayor's, the leave-taking, the journey to Mayence, and the broad Capougnerstrasse where the good woman gave me a foot-bath, Frankfort and Erfurth farther on, where I received my first letter, two days before the battle, the Russians, the Prussians everything in fact and then I would weep, but the thought of Catherine was always uppermost.
