Coming to America, the family settled in Pennsylvania, where Brother Hauser was born, in 1834. His family came to Wisconsin and settled at Delavan in 1850. He graduated from Lawrence University in 1860. During his senior year he was President of the College Missionary Society, and when writing to Rev. Dr.
I found myself, with some fifty officers and men, in a big house from which we took four hundred men and five officers, Colonel Hauser for one. "My opinion is that we were very lucky at Magenta. The thick country in which we fought, favored us in hiding our inferior number from the Austrians. I do not believe we would have succeeded so well in open country.
This was not an exhibition of love or, at least, not necessarily so. You might exhibit sensibility before a famous poet, or a gallant soldier, or a celebrated traveler or, for that matter, before a remarkable buffoon, like Cagliostro, or a freak, like Kaspar Hauser. It is plain enough that sensibility was entirely an abnormal thing, and denoted an abnormal state of mind.
Hauser was not the possessor of a great technique, but there was something characteristic and charming in his tone and mannerisms, which were especially pleasing to the fair sex. He was a man of restless, and, in some respects, dissatisfied nature. Some of his compositions are still to be found on concert programmes, and these he used to play exquisitely.
During the few years that were granted him in our world, persecuted by some unknown person, against whom he was helpless, knowing that his life was aimed at by some one, but unable to protect himself, and at last falling a victim to the threatened blow, and, worst of all, charged on his death-bed with being an impostor, such was the life of Caspar Hauser!
It seemed that the banker Zuccari frequently visited that hotel, and on every occasion the man Hauser came to Zurich to see him. "They are conducting some crooked business that is my belief, m'sieur!" the uniformed man told me in confidence. "Why do you suspect that?" I asked quickly.
He knew so little German that he merely smiled at Daniel’s caustic remarks; and if he became violently enraged, M. Rivière merely stared at his mouth. He had a wart on his cheek, and wore a straw hat summer and winter. He cooked his own meals, for it was an obsession of his that people wanted to poison him because he was writing a life of Caspar Hauser.
M. P. Langford, S. T. Hauser and T. C. Everts. There was also a military escort under Lieutenant Doane. The party proceeded up the Yellowstone River to the Grand Cañon, thence across to Yellowstone Lake, around its eastern edge to the southern end, whence turning west they followed down the Firehole River through the Upper Geyser Basin to the Madison River.
He never made him a Caspar Hauser, in the forest, without name or home, a Melchisedek, in the wilderness, without father, without mother, without descent, a Robinson Crusoe, on his island, in skins and barefooted, waiting, among goats and parrots, the coming of the canoes and the savages, to enable him to "consent" if he would, to the relations of social life.
They were, indeed, rather surprised that neither of them had come down a few days before, as soon as the road was open, in order to tell them all about their long winter sojourn. At last, however, they saw the inn, still covered with snow, like a quilt. The door and the window were closed, but a little smoke was coming out of the chimney, which reassured old Hauser.
