But my story is not quite done yet; it must now pursue the fortunes of the enterprising impresario, Signor G , who had so deftly turned his daughter into a ship-load of fine linens. This excellent person sailed, as M. M. told Mr. Schulemberg, for Vera Cruz, with an assorted cargo, consisting of singers, fiddlers, and, as aforesaid, of Mynheer Van Holland's fine linens.
Then there was the proud Rychie Korbes, whose father, Mynheer van Korbes, was one of the leading men of Amsterdam; and, flocking closely around her, Carl Schummel, Peter and Ludwig van Holp, Jacob Poot, and a very small boy rejoicing in the tremendous name of Voostenwalbert Schimmelpenninck.
When the little doctor arrived, he carefully examined his patient, and then went down stairs with her son into the kitchen. "Mynheer Philip," said Poots, "by Allah! I have done my best, but I must tell you that I have little hopes of your mother rising from her bed again. She may live one day or two days, but not more. It is not my fault, Mynheer Philip," continued Poots, in a deprecating tone.
"His name is never heard." Late one evening, a packet of letters, just arrived by the English mail, was handed to Mynheer Von Kapell, a merchant of Hamburgh.
Mynheer Van Something is as eager to precipitate my motions as I was to get out of the damps and perplexities of Soorflect yesterday evening; so mounting a very indifferent staircase, he led me to a suite of garret-like apartments; which, considering the meanness of their exterior, I was much surprised to find stored with some of the most valuable productions of the Indies.
"I greet you gladly, sir knights," Van Artevelde said, "both for your own sakes and for that of Mynheer Van Voorden, my worthy friend, who has presented you, and right glad shall I be if you will aid us in this sore strait into which we have fallen." "I fear that our aid will not be of much avail to you, sir," Edgar said, "but such service as we can render we will right willingly give.
So saying, Mynheer Kloots left the cabin, and went to look after the supercargo, who remained on the forecastle, with his bald head and meagre body, haranguing the men in his shirt, which fluttered in the breeze. "I am very sorry, Mynheer Von Stroom," said Kloots, "but the bear shall be sent out of the vessel."
Babette took care not to be seen by Mr Vanslyperken, but shrouding herself close in her cotton print cloak, she followed him to the Stadt House, and from the Stadt House to the mansion of Mynheer Van Krause, at a short distance from the gates of which she remained till he came out.
Braddock's great defeat had a potent influence in the north, and now they were all for caution. While they delayed Robert went into Albany one bright morning to see Mynheer Jacobus Huysman, who showed much anxiety about him these days.
Many thanks, my dear friend, for your kind counsel, which I shall follow;" so saying, Mynheer Krause went to his room, threw off his gown and chains in a passion, and hastened to his counting house to write his important letters. We may now take this opportunity of informing the reader of what had occurred in the house of the syndic.
