The children had an uncle, a woodcutter, who lived some fifteen miles from Haldenbrunn, at Fluorn. They had seen him only once, and that was at their parents' funeral, when he had walked behind the magistrate, who had led the children by the hand. After that time the children often dreamt about their uncle at Fluorn.
"These are your brother's clothes," said Farmer Rodel to the stranger; and the latter went on to say to Amrei: "As you see, these are your father's clothes. We shall take them with us, and you shall go too first to Fluorn, and then across the brook." Amrei, trembling, touched her father's coat and his blue-striped vest.
They also almost entirely forgot about the uncle in Fluorn, for during many years they had heard nothing of him. But one day the children were called into their guardian's house, and there sat a tall, heavy man with a brown face. "Come here, children," said this man, as the children entered. "Don't you know me?" He had a dry, harsh voice. The children looked at him with wondering eyes.
