She was brought into the presence of Mynheer Engelback, who held the office of provost. "Here is the widow Vandersloosh, mynheer." "Very well," replied Engelback, who was in a very bad humour at the unsuccessful search after the conspirators, "away with her." "Away! where?" exclaimed the widow. Engelback did not condescend to make a reply.

"I have no friend in the house except my very particular friend, Mynheer Engelback," replied the syndic. "You must excuse us, but we must search the house." "You have his Majesty's warrant so to do, and no excuse is necessary." After a diligent search of half an hour, nobody was found in the house, and the officers began to suspect that the government had been imposed upon.
"Yes, but a little thing will sour the face of royalty, his corn may have pinched him, at the time he might have had a twinge in the bowels his voyage may have affected him." "He smiled upon others, upon my friend, Engelback, very graciously." This was the very party who had prepared the charges against Krause his own very particular friend. "Did he?" replied Ramsay.
"Arrest and conduct me to prison me the syndic of the town that is strange will you allow me to see your warrant yes, it is all true and countersigned by his Majesty; I have no more to say, Mynheer Engelback. As syndic of this town, and administrator of the laws, it is my duty to set the example of obedience to them, at the same time protesting my entire innocence. Koop, get me my mantle.
"Then, depend upon it, that's the very man who has belied you." "What, Engelback? my particular friend?" "Yes, I should imagine so. Tell me, Mynheer Krause, I trust you have never entrusted to him the important secrets which I have made you acquainted with, for if you have, your knowledge of them would be quite sufficient." "My knowledge of them! I really cannot understand that.
Mynheer Engelback, I claim to be treated with the respect due to me, as syndic of this town." The officers were not a little staggered at the coolness and sang-froid of Mynheer Krause, he had never appeared to so such advantage; they bowed respectfully as he finished his speech. "I believe, Mynheer Krause, that you have some friends staying with you?"

Upon his return, Mynheer Krause publicly announced that he had resigned the office of syndic, much to the astonishment of those who heard of it, and much to the delight of his very particular friend Engelback, who, the next morning set off for the Hague, and had an interview with his Grace the Duke of Portland, the result of which was, that upon grounds best known to the parties; for history will not reveal everything, Mynheer Engelback was recommended to fill the office of syndic of the town of Amsterdam, vacant by the resignation of Mynheer Krause; and that in consequence of this, all those who took off their hats to Mynheer Krause but two days before, and kept them on when they met Mynheer Engelback, now kept them on when they met Mynheer Krause, and pulled them off very politely to Mynheer Krause's very particular friend, Mynheer Engelback.
