You'll find it in yours if you look them over well. I caught sight of the article yesterday, and started at once, without even staying over to see Herbert. Evidently he knows nothing about it yet, or he'd have sent me word." "Herbert'll be here to-day; in an hour or two now," said von Schönau, while glancing hastily over the papers.
But of course you know nothing about educating children; it stands to reason that you should not." "What? I, a man and a father, and know nothing about educating children?" cried Schönau, red with anger.
"Why not?" he bellowed. "You were a fool not to have done it yourself. Maenck will do it and get a baronetcy. It will mean a captaincy for me at least. Let me at him no man can strike Karl Schonau and live." "The king is unarmed," cried Emma von der Tann. "Would you murder him in cold blood?" "He shall not murder him at all, your highness," said Lieutenant Butzow quietly.
In the middle of that century, when heresy was rife at Koln, a number of bones of persons of both sexes were found near Koln, and the authenticity of the relics was put beyond dispute by the revelations vouchsafed to Saint Elizabeth, Abbess of Schonau, to whom the matter was referred.
With respect to the green slates of Malpaso, which have all the characters of transition-slates, they are identical with those which M. von Buch has so well described, near Schonau, in Silesia. It forms perhaps a subordinate stratum in the slates of Malpaso. On some points we think we observe one passing into the other.
The young heir was no longer a "weak tool," as his uncle Schönau had called him, but a brave, determined, genuine man. "Our former meetings have been but fleeting," the prince went on, "so you must forgive the liberty if I offer you my congratulations; you are betrothed, I believe to " "I believe your highness is laboring under a mistake," Willibald interrupted him, with some embarrassment.
And then he drew his friend toward him and began to ask questions and chatter away with such genuine heartiness, that Will soon lost his shyness and could speak as of old to him. He explained that he had only been three days in town, and was on his way to Fürstenstein. "Yes, and you're to be married soon. I heard of your betrothal at Rodeck, and I have seen Fräulein von Schönau once.
The duke and duchess are there, and Princess Sophie with a royal niece, a kinswoman of her late husband, I hear." "Yes, with her niece." Prince Egon turned suddenly and looked at his companion. "Herr von Schönau, I see you are about to congratulate me. If you do I'll demand satisfaction on the spot, right here in the middle of the forest."
"So that's what you call a sensible choice, do you, when a girl of eighteen marries a man old enough to be her father?" asked Schönau, who, in the heat of discussion, came back to his sister-in-law again. "To be sure she has a high place in society now, as the wife of His Excellency, the Ambassador, and is a baroness and all that.
"You shall die for that, you half-wit," he cried. Lieutenant Butzow, he of the Royal Horse, rushed forward to prevent the assault and Emma von der Tann sprang from her saddle and threw herself in front of Barney. Butzow grasped the other officer's arm. "Are you mad, Schonau?" he cried. "Would you kill the king?" The fellow tugged to escape the grasp of Butzow. He was crazed with anger.
