"Mamma," she exclaimed, "there is the parcel you brought away from the china place. What is it? I wish you would show it me." I gave a little exclamation of annoyance. "Frau von Walden has forgotten it," I said; for my friend, returning straight to Kronberg, had offered to take it home for me in her bag for fear of accidents. "It does not matter," I added, "I will pack it among our soft things.
"Sure, I know," Morris retorted. "You think of nothing but your stomach. Believe me, Abe, I worked hard enough this morning." "Worked nothing!" Abe rejoined. "You have been up to some monkey business, Mawruss; otherwise why should Mosha Kronberg telephone us just now he thought the matter over since you left there and he would be up to see you this afternoon already." "What!" Morris cried.
"Well, you may be easy, as we shall only be here a few hours after you leave." "Yes; so much the better. I wish I could have stayed, but I must be back at Kronberg to-morrow. Lutz could have stayed and seen you back to Seeberg, but his father won't let him. Herr von Walden is so queer once he takes an idea in his head and he won't allow this place isn't all right."
"And it might remind Nora of the blue paper parcel. I think I shall give the cup and saucer to my sister." And on my return to England I did so. Two years later. A very different scene from quaint old Kronberg, or still more from the dreary "Katze" at Silberbach. We are in England now, though not at our own home.
"I could feel a whole lot better, Aaron, and I could feel a whole lot worse," Mosha Kronberg replied. "Them suckers has been after me again." "Which ones are they now?" Aaron asked, his curiosity aroused. "An orphan asylum," Mosha replied. "The gall which some people got it, Aaron, honestly you wouldn't believe it at all. They want me I should give 'em two hundred and fifty dollars.
Leon looked at Aaron Kronberg, who was gulping convulsively in an effort to express adequately all he felt. At length he commenced to address his uncle in husky tones. "You cut-throat!" he croaked. "You robber, you! You shed my blood! Give me back my seven hundred and fifty dollars." "Your seven hundred and fifty!" Uncle Mosha exclaimed. "That's what I said," Aaron went on.
He was not alone, for at one side of a long library table sat Leon Sammet, while opposite to him a tall, sandy-haired person methodically arranged various bundles of papers which he drew out of capacious pasteboard envelopes. "Ah, gentlemen, you're here at last," Feldman cried. "Mr. Jones, this is Mr. Kronberg and his nephew, Mr. Aaron Kronberg. Mr. Kronberg."
Only to think he now comes back and takes away half my house from me." "I ain't come back to do no such thing!" Max cried. "I could assure you, Mr. Kronberg, although me and Alex Kronberg is going as partners together, I never knew until I seen you here that you was any relation of his. As for your house, Mr. Kronberg, I don't know nothing about it at all." "Don't you?" Uncle Mosha exclaimed.
Having found them, he was soon plunged in a maze of figures representing the profit in going short of seven hundred shares on a one-point margin, assuming that the market dropped eight points in ten days. "Hallo, Aaron," Leon Sammet cried when he caught sight of the younger Kronberg. Aaron nodded, with half-closed eyes. "Sit down, Aaron," Leon continued; "you look worried."
Carl presently took the singular metal contrivance from his pocket, deftly clamped the fingers of his victim and sat down to wait, rummaging for his flute. The tension snapped. Choking, Kronberg fell forward at his jailer's feet, his eyes imploring. "Mercy," he whispered. "I I can not bear it." "Then you will answer what I ask?" "Yes."
