Then the 'Fater' blesses his forty-year-old heir and the thirty-five-year-old Gretchen with the sunken bosom and the scarlet nose; after which he bursts, into tears, reads the pair a lesson on morality, and dies. In turn the eldest son becomes a virtuous 'Fater, and the old story begins again.
In ze year 1796 one conscription took place, ant each which vas serviceable, from ze eighteens to ze twenty-first year, hat to go to town. "My Fater and my broser Johann come to town, ant ve go togezer to throw ze lot for which shoult pe Soldat. Johann drew ze fatal nomper, and me vas not necessary to pe Soldat. Ant Papa sayt, 'I have only vun son, ant wis him I must now separate!
'Indeed; it is for love of him, your fater, sir, you come, and not speak German? I signified that it was so. 'She stroked her pony's neck musing. 'Because, of love is not much in de family in England, it is said, she remarked very shyly, and in recovering her self-possession asked the name of my father. 'His name, mademoiselle, is Mr. Richmond. 'Mr. Richmond? 'Mr. Richmond Roy.
Each such 'Fater' has his family, and in the evenings they read improving books aloud. Over their roof-trees there murmur elms and chestnuts; the sun has sunk to his rest; a stork is roosting on the gable; and all is beautifully poetic and touching. Do not be angry, General. Let me tell you something that is even more touching than that.

'For strangers, yes; you should be of de palace to know what a fine sight! sthe finest! And you are for Sarkeld? You have friends in Sarkeld? 'My father is in Sarkeld, mademoiselle. I am told he is at the palace. 'Indeed; and he is English, your fater? 'Yes. I have not seen him for years; I have come to find him.
A War Episode I Meet my Fater I Marry and Make a Home The Ups and Downs of Life Lead to a Happy Old Age In bringing these desultory perhaps too fragmentary recollections to a close the writer may not be denied his final word. This shall neither be self-confident nor overstated; the rather a confession of faith somewhat in rejection of political and religious pragmatism.
Suppose the 'Fater' has put by a certain number of gulden which he hands over to his eldest son, in order that the said son may acquire a trade or a small plot of land. Well, one result is to deprive the daughter of a dowry, and so leave her among the unwedded.
I can remember how, of an evening, my own father, now dead, used to sit under the lime trees in his little garden, and to read books aloud to myself and my mother. Yes, I know how things ought to be done. Yet every German family is bound to slavery and to submission to its 'Fater. They work like oxen, and amass wealth like Jews.
