They expect Friedrich at the gates of Frankfurt shortly; know well that they cannot defend Frankfurt. They calculate that Friedrich will attack them in their Judenberg Encampment, but hope they are nearly ready for him there. Loudon, from the Guben Suburb, will hasten across, at any moment; welcome on such fighting occasion, though ill seen when the question is of eating!
Fischer," she asked him. He shook his head. "I was born at Offenbach," he told her, "near Frankfurt. My father brought me out to America when I was eleven years old." "You must find the present condition of things a little trying for you," she observed. Oscar Fischer put on his glasses again. He did not answer for several moments.
It is only in the last chapter that he attempts to draw the lesson and point out the conclusion of his own inquiry. And his conclusion is an eloquent though restrained plea for a Franco-German rapprochement, and in favour of the only policy which will bring about that reconciliation. France, he argues, does not want a revision of the Treaty of Frankfurt. She does not want compensation or revenge.
And now, after this flight half round the world, it is time we return to Oder Country, and a Friedrich on the edge of formidable things there. Next day after Beeskow, where we left him, he duly arrived at Mullrose; was joined by Wedell there, August 6th; and is now at Wulkow, "encamped between Lebus and Wulkow," as we hear elsewhere; quite in the environs of Frankfurt and of great events.
They should by all means persevere and act discreetly. He was very satisfied to hear of the progress made at the Teaching Conference held in Frankfurt under the aegis of the European Hands. He feels sure that this helped to stimulate and coordinate the work.
"Von Müller!" The young man's face went a shade paler. The story of von Müller and his feud with an "English" airman and of the disastrous sequel to that feud, was common knowledge throughout Germany. Walking back to Command Headquarters, von Zeiglemann expressed his private views to his confidant. "If Tam can scare this money-bag back to Frankfurt, he will render us a service."
And still did not rest there; but had to rush about, back to Versailles, to Dresden, hither, thither: it was not till the last day of July that he fairly took up his abode in Frankfurt; and the Election eggs, so to speak, being now all laid set himself to hatch the same. A process which lasted him six months longer, with curious phenomena to mankind.
In point of fact, he remains at Frankfurt, and it would be very hard for him to go elsewhere in safety." Meanwhile England had renounced her neutrality; the general feeling of the nation prevailed over the prudent and farsighted ability of Robert Walpole; he succumbed, after his long ministry, full of honors and riches; the government had passed into warlike hands.
"Are you pleased to come to Frankfurt?" went on Clara. "No, but I shall go home to-morrow and take grandmother a white loaf," explained Heidi. "Well, you are a funny child!" exclaimed Clara.
Her words comforted Heidi, who had in truth been greatly distressed, for she had never before seen the grandmother ill in bed. She now looked at the old woman seriously for a minute or two, and then said, "In Frankfurt everybody puts on a shawl to go out walking; did you think it was to be worn in bed, grandmother?"
