The speech delivered on the occasion of the re-interment is characteristic exceptionally so even for Wagner of this period, 1844 in its assertion of the Germanity of Weber and Weber's music; and his deep joy that at last the German musician's bones should repose in German earth.

During this period they had no fire in the house, even in winter; they ate their food cold, and left the cabin only at night, and as secretly as possible. This, however, was not all. Once in twelve years was held a great ceremony of re-interment, a solemn "feast of the dead," as it was called.

Faulkner, in his history of Chelsea, adheres to this opinion, and says that the tomb in that church is but "an empty cenotaph." His grandson, in his Life, says, "his body was buried in the Chapel of St. Peter, in the Tower, in the belfry, or, as some say, as one entereth into the vestry;" and he does not notice the story of his daughter's re-interment of it elsewhere.
