Nobody suspected what a tremendous amount of will power he had to summon to keep his self-control. Like a boy saying his A B C's, he kept repeating to himself: "I am Frederick von Kammacher. This is Peter Schmidt. This is his wife, and this is the patient."
"Papa told me you were here," the little miss said to him, adjusting the blue silk cap on her doll's head. "Won't you sit down with us? Mr. Achleitner, please go and get a chair for Doctor von Kammacher." She turned to Doctor Wilhelm. "Your treatment was summary, but I am grateful to you. I feel very well sitting here, watching the sun set. You're fond of nature, aren't you, Doctor von Kammacher?"
During this last phase of the dance, her artist audience stood there rigid, breathless, suffocating with a sense of horror. It was not until nearly the end that Frederick von Kammacher felt that his fate was forever linked with this girl. The feeling grew stronger during the few moments that remained before the conclusion of the performance.
"The Roland, the Roland, and still the Roland, columns and pages of the Roland." Frederick clutched at his head. "Was I really on the Roland?" he exclaimed. "Very much so, it seems," said Schmidt. "Here you are in black type. 'Doctor Frederick von Kammacher performs miracles of bravery. And here they have a picture of you."
Doctor Wilhelm, who kept in touch with professional circles, was acquainted with Frederick's name and the outcome of his scientific career. His unfortunate bacteriological work was on his book shelf. Nevertheless, the name of Frederick von Kammacher had an authoritative ring, and association with the great man flattered him. He listened to Frederick's exposition intently.
Why did that splendid Captain von Kessel drown? I shall never forget him. Why did all those splendid picked men of the crew of the Roland drown? Why and for what purpose was I myself saved?" "Doctor von Kammacher," said Miss Burns, "yesterday you were an entirely different man. You were full of brightness and life; to-day you are all gloom.
There was a great din and bustle on the streets, and into the din and bustle Frederick saw his friends of the Roland and the Hamburg step from the bar. As he was about to wave to them, he slipped and stumbled on a piece of fruit on the pavement. "Don't fall, Doctor von Kammacher!" a woman's voice cried. "How do you do?"
Liebling, who had already been in Boston and Washington, was perfectly delighted with America. "What do you think of the New York hotels? I am living at the Waldorf. Aren't they magnificent? I have four rooms in the front. Such quiet, such luxury, such beautiful pictures! You feel as if you were in the Arabian Nights. Doctor von Kammacher, you positively must go to Delmonico's.
"I know where you were, Doctor von Kammacher," Ingigerd said. "Does she know the truth now?" "Yes," Frederick replied. "I hope she will be quieter now." Ingigerd wanted to go down to Mrs. Liebling.
The man troubled him. He noticed that Hahlström graciously permitted the stranger to entertain him and pay him court. "Do you know that tall, fair-haired man, Doctor von Kammacher?" the physician asked. In his confusion Frederick failed to answer, looking helplessly at Doctor Wilhelm. "He is a Swede. His name is Hahlström," Doctor Wilhelm continued. "A peculiar fellow.
