Brenner was on her knees before Munn, clutching him about the legs with twining arms. Tears of agony dripped over her seamed face. "He didn't do it! Don't take him! He's my baby! He never harmed anybody! He's my baby!" Then with a shriek, as Munn unclasped her arms, "Oh, my God! My God!" Munn helped her to her feet. "Now, now, Mrs. Brenner, don't take on so," he said awkwardly.
Serbian scoundrels were found on all sides; if one of them had succeeded in destroying the Brenner line the whole plan of mobilization would have been disturbed. Therefore sentinels were placed along the whole line and strong guards protected every tunnel. At night all lights were put out and those on the engines covered up; even the stations were not illuminated everywhere darkness.
As the carrying and convoying agent of the Crusaders, Venice developed greatly in wealth and power. With direct access to the Brenner Pass, she became a rich distributing center for Eastern goods to northern Europe. In all important Levantine cities there was a Venetian quarter, Venetians had special trading privileges, and many seaports and islands came directly under Venetian rule.
He was holding something in his hand, but Mrs. Brenner could not see what it was. "You chop your wood with a short, heavy ax, don't you, Brenner?" said Munn. Brenner nodded. "It's marked with your name, isn't it?" Brenner nodded again. "Is this the ax?" Mrs. Brenner gave a short, sharp scream. Red and clotted, ever the handle marked with bloody spots, the ax was theirs.
Chrysander's statement that he spent Christmas 1706 with his mother at Halle is manifestly untrue. Mattheson says that he travelled to Rome with a Herr von Binitz, but nothing is known of this gentleman. His most natural route into Italy would be by the Brenner, the historic road of all German pilgrims. Handel may well have been glad to leave Hamburg, but Hamburg did not forget him.
Though it was now late in March, and the House was sitting, Charles insisted that we must all run over at once to take possession of our magnificent Tyrolese castle. Amelia was almost equally burning with eagerness. She gave herself the airs of a Countess already. We took the Orient Express as far as Munich; then the Brenner to Meran, and put up for the night at the Erzherzog Johann.
"It's likely, ain't it, that I'd change into shoes as wet as these?" "Those tracks are Mart's!" Olga reiterated hysterically. "They lead into your son's room, Mrs. Brenner. And we find your ax not far from your door, just where the path starts for the hill." Munn's eyes were grave. The old woman in the corner began to whimper, "Blood and trouble! Blood and trouble all my days! Red on his hands!
A new Malthus for the express purpose of extinguishing, by strangulation or otherwise, the whole race of Annual Travellers in Normandy, Picardy, up the Seine and down the Seine, up the Loire and down the Loire, on the shores of the Mediterranean, and in the Brenner Alps, would be a benefactor to society.
Mart resumed his position before the stove, lifting one foot into the capacious black maw of the oven. "Must 'a' got your feet wet, Brenner?" the sheriff said with heavy jocularity. Brenner nodded, "You bet I did," he replied. "Been down on the beach all afternoon." "Didn't happen to hear any unusual noise down there, did you?" Munn spoke with his eyes on Mrs.
He must travel thousands of miles and he must pay his passage and his hotel-bills. At home he could pay with products of his farm. But he could not well take a hundred dozen eggs and a cart-load of hams with him to satisfy the greed of the shipping agent of Venice or the inn-keeper of the Brenner Pass. These gentlemen insisted upon cash.
