The remark was so unexpected that Dorothy slipped a beat in her step and shuffled quickly to fall in tune. "Good Gracious! what for?" Her surprise was unfeigned. "Because he won't let me give him the Heim Vandyke wants to buy it, insists on buying it. Asked me to let him have it and then won't accept it. Now, do me a favor, will you? You make him take it.

Later on we found that Theodor Kirchner, a musician who had settled at Winterthur and frequently visited Zurich, was better able to play certain bits of the pianoforte score. The wife of Heim, the head of the Glee Society, with whom we were both on friendly terms, was pressed into the service to sing the parts for female voices when I attempted to play some of the vocal parts.

"After five years of study with my first teacher, Rudolph Heim, a pupil of Moscheles, I entered the Moscow Conservatory, and continued my studies under Professor Pabst, brother and teacher of the composer of that name.
