Berthold Tours was a famous violinist of the first class, besides being a recognised composer of music, and edited with Natalia Macfarren a superb edition of the Italian, the German, and the French Operas. 4, Hill Side, Cotham, Bristol. From the BRISTOL TIMES AND MIRROR, April 18th, 1902.
And if Demon hadn't been mighty quick in recovering, it would have been a blank nasty mess." "I say," said Macfarren, in a loud, blustering tone, "don't you know enough to keep off a race-course when a race is being run?" Shock was much taken aback at this greeting. "I beg your pardon, but I didn't know this was a race-course, nor did I know that a race was on." "The deuce you didn't!
Many musicians have been taken from us since the well-beloved Jenny Lind Goldschmidt; Canon Sir E. A. Gore Ouseley, Sir G. Macfarren, Principal of the Royal Academy of Music, Rubinstein, Carrodus, and others. English letters have suffered by the removal of many whose services in one way or another have been great: the prose-painter Richard Jefferies; the pure and beneficent Mrs.
Meantime the Convener sits on the chest, and the rest of the Committee seem to feel that their chief duty lies in cutting down expenses and that the highest possible achievement is their meeting the Assembly without a deficit." "P.S. Dr. Macfarren hinted a good deal at want of tact on the part of our Missionary, and young Lloyd, who knows Macgregor, seemed to consider this quite possible.
Macfarren says he was a failure, went on the old chief, using at least five r's, 'Mr. Lloyd says he is not adaptable, he is lacking in fine sensibilities. It is true God did not make him with sleek hair' which, by Jove, was true enough 'and dainty fingers.

"Well, the truth is, Doctor," said Macfarren, considerably nettled at the Superintendent's manner, "the people consider that they were not well treated in the supply you sent them." "Ah!

"Did he visit his people?" "Yes, goodness knows, he did that enough." "Was his character good?" "Oh, certainly."
"Oh ah certainly we are glad to have you visit our town," said Macfarren, as if trying to atone for his former rudeness. "And, of course, it is no fault of yours, Mr. ah " "Macgregor," said the General shortly. "Yes, Mr. Macgregor. There's a deuce of a mistake been made, but I take it you will not suffer. There are plenty of ah positions places, I believe, where you will find ah opportunity.

He took the doctor's arm and, helping him up, walked off with him. "What do you want?" said the doctor fiercely, when they were outside. "Doctor, I want your help. I feel weak." "Weak! Great Heavens above! YOU talk of weakness? Don't mock me!"
The hall was full; the Inspector and his wife, with the men from the barracks, Macfarren and his followers, General Brady and his gracious, sweet-faced wife, were all there. Ike and The Kid whose ranch lay halfway between the Lake and the Fort had ridden in, and far back in the dim darkness of a corner sat the doctor.
