The tower room, which had been his brother Salo's abode, was inspected next, and again the Baron uttered no word. Beautiful portraits of his ancestors adorned these walls, and he recalled how Salo had loved them. Apollonie moved next to the room of the Baroness where every object was in its place again.
You would like her dreadfully right away." "Do you think so?" said the gentleman, while something like a smile played about his lips. "Is it your sister?" "My sister? No, indeed," Mäzli said, quite astonished at his error. "She is Salo's sister, the boy who was with us and who had to go back to Hanover.
Since our old aunt died nobody has been so good and sweet with us as your mother and that will do more good to Leonore than anything else on earth." Salo's words made a deep impression on Bruno.
The thought of going far away and possibly never coming back gave him a little pang of grief. When the children returned at noon from school they were still full of their vivid impression of Salo's sudden appearance and departure. They were all anxious to tell their mother about it, because they knew that they could always count on her lively sympathy.
She lost no time in telling her hostess that she counted on Baron Salo's son joining the other three lads in town and that her husband had agreed to look up another room for him.
The great obstacle of Salo's studies would not be put aside in that way, either, for he could not join you there for years." "Oh, I was thinking all the time how lovely it would be to live with Apollonie! It would be so wonderful I could live with her there and Salo could come to us in the holidays till he is through with his studies. Then we could both settle here in the neighborhood."
Not more than three years later Salo died of a violent fever and Leonore followed him in a few months, but they left a little boy and a little girl. After Salo's death Leonore was left alone in life, so an aunt from Holstein came to live with her in Nice. After Leonore's death this aunt took the two children home with her.
The mother had been quite certain that Bruno in his interview with her would make a last, desperate effort to escape having to live with the Knippel boys. What was her surprise when she found that this had been entirely pushed into the background by his lively sympathy in Salo's destiny.
I am going to get that if I have to work for twenty years in the fields till it is paid for." Salo's eyes had become sunny again during this speech. He looked as if he would not have minded seizing a hoe that very moment. Rapid steps were now heard approaching, the door was quickly opened, and Miss Remke called out on entering: "The carriage is at the door.
The boy had been absolutely right when he supposed that Mrs. Maxa would be glad to help them, but she had to tell Bruno frankly that there was no advice she was able to give. She had no authority over the children and could therefore do nothing, as everything depended on Salo's early completion of his studies so that he could choose an occupation.
