Halm had seriously told the children not to make any remarks about Cornelli's hair in case she should come. She had told them not to show any surprise if Cornelli wore her hair in a rather strange fashion and not to notice it further; that was the way the mother wished it to be. Little Mux was very much pleased at having a new companion.
Among these Lombards, as among our English forefathers, when a man thingavit, i.e. donavit, a gift or bequest to any one, it was necessary, according to law CLXXII., to do it before gisiles, witnesses, and to give a garathinx, or earnest, of his bequest a halm of straw, a turf, a cup of drink, a piece of money as to this day a drover seals his bargain with a shilling, and a commercial traveller with a glass of liquor.
At this point Ingigerd Hahlström passed by with the giant Von Halm. Frederick heard her say she did not dance, that dancing was an insipid pleasure. With that, he started away from the railing, went up to the Canadian, and in a peculiar, fiery German manner ruthlessly drew her away from the young American, who was completely taken aback.
So the five children ran away with great eagerness. The Director and Mrs. Halm remained in the dining room, drinking their coffee in each other's company. "Please, Mr. Hellmut," she said, as soon as the door had closed behind the children, "please let me thank you for your great kindness. I want to tell you how grateful I am." "What do you mean? Why do you want to thank me, Mrs.
Ernst Pauer, who is never appealed to in vain, I am indebted for the following data as well as for the subject matter of my notice on Werner: "Eduard Pirkhert, born at Graz in 1817, was a pupil of Anton Halm and Carl Czerny. He was a shy and enormously diligent artist, who, however, on account of his nervousness, played, like Henselt, rarely in public.
So we must always celebrate it as a great feast day." Nika had lately been very sweet and friendly to Cornelli, and the younger girl had been very happy about it. But had never dreamed that Nika would ever speak to her like this. When Esther heard that the Halm family was going to remain for the present and return every year, she said: "Oh, I am glad.
Halm, too," he said, looking with pleasure at the lively face with the wide-open, bright eyes. How nice and trim everything was about her! "Yes, indeed," she replied quickly, and ran away. "What a happy mother, what a happy woman!" said the Director to himself. "And to compare my child to such children. I cannot bear it! Such children, and mine beside them!"
Frederick stroked Ingigerd's hand. "All due respect to Achleitner, but if I mourn single victims of that fearful night, I first think of the heroes of the Roland, Captain von Kessel, his mate, Von Halm, and all those picked braves who really died like great men fulfilling their duty. They are a loss to the world.
The first mate, Von Halm, a magnificent young man of twenty-eight, a perfect tower of a man, joined the group and was favoured by Ingigerd with looks and pointed remarks, which indicated to her admirers that this weather-tanned officer was not an object of indifference to her. "How many miles, Lieutenant, since we left the Needles?" asked Achleitner, who was pale and evidently chilly.
His nails are stuffed with fetid filth as black as jet, with which he marks any passage that pleases him. He distributes a multitude of straws, which he inserts to stick out in different places, so that the halm may remind him of what his memory cannot retain.
