Early in his search for work he had made a noontime pause, one day, in a quaint lager-beer saloon much frequented by musicians. There, at the table where he sat, he had encountered one who earnestly announced himself as a "wise guy" and told him much about New York, all quite as pessimistic as the London romancer's talk had been enthusiastic.
For most of the family-people had brought their provisions with them; and, in many cases, the basket was flanked by a stone jar which looked as if it might contain lager-beer, as, in several instances, it did.
Two large tallow candles were burning brightly, and altogether the house presented a very lively appearance. "Here you are at last," cried the Mole-father. "Supper is just ready, and I have sent Karl to the Inn for some lager-beer." "I wonder if he will hear anything," said the Mole-mother taking off her galoshes; and then she related all the news of the evening.

Close by were several one-year volunteers, and two or three non-commissioned officers with them.
