The chef at the club, Mr. Scherer insisted, could produce nothing equal to Heinrich's sauer-kraut and sausage. My earliest relationship with Mr. Scherer was that of an errand boy, of bringing to him for his approval papers which might not be intrusted to a common messenger. His gruffness and brevity disturbed me more than I cared to confess.
As the light flooded the garage Heinrich's angora cat rose sleepily from the tonneau of the automobile and stretched himself. A cloth covering over the parrot's cage kept that garrulous bird quiet. Percy lay stretched out in the water which filled his tub. "The dog must be out with Heinrich," said Bob. He seated himself in the driver's seat of the car, and Hugh lifted the drowsy cat to the floor.
"I determined to wait patiently till I could learn from Heinrich's own lips that he had abandoned his early friend.
Britling bethought herself of Herr Heinrich's pair, still left unpacked upstairs. She produced them, and they fitted exactly. It seemed only poetical justice, a foretaste of national compensations, to annex them to Belgium forthwith.... Also it became manifest that Mr. Van der Pant was cut off from all his family. And suddenly he became briskly critical of the English way of doing things.
"Is this all the fighting strength of the United States navy?" questioned Hartzmann, jotting down the figures in a notebook. "No, Herr Captain; there are seventy fighting craft; but not in commission and all require overhauling. Half of the submarines will not er 'sub, so to speak." A ghost of a smile crossed Heinrich's lips.

'Oh, I don't know I don't know as ever, Frank answered quickly; and yet in his heart there was the firm resolve to go to Wiesbaden and hunt up Marguerite Heinrich's friends, if possible.
The two contending figures writhed desperately a moment and then the tall man shifted one powerful, sinewy hand to Heinrich's throat. The binoculars brought the thing so near to Cleggett that it seemed as if he could touch the contorted faces; he could see the tall man's neck muscles work as if that person were panting; he could see the signs of suffocation in Heinrich's countenance.
He need ask no leave from me, and need run no risk of my rebuff or of Princess Heinrich's stiffness. He knew all the world of Forstadt. From favour or fear every door opened when he knocked at it. He knew, among the rest, Victoria's Baron over at Waldenweiter. From no place could he better observe the King. Nowhere else was it so easy for a man to meet the King.
Then we walked away together. That afternoon I was summoned to Princess Heinrich's room to drink tea with her and the Duchess. Cousin Elizabeth was still exuberant; it seemed to me that a cold watchfulness governed my mother's mood.
