There seemed to be no end of them. There came now a fellow whom he watched closely. He had blond hair and blue eyes, but no glasses. He looked something like something like oh, who? Fritzie Schmitt, whom he used to know in Bridgeboro. No, he didn't not so much. But his blond hair and blue eyes did not escape Mr. Conne. Nothing. "Watching, Tommy?" "Yes, sir."
In an equally broad spirit does he introduce to his students the works of the ultra modern school, Debussy, Rachmaninoff, Florent Schmitt, Reger, Liadow, Poldini and others.
Perhaps that is the cause of the silence, just as Wagner's dislike for Meyerbeer was the result of his obligations to the composer of "Les Huguenots." He heard Aloys Schmitt play, and uttered the very Heinesque witticism that "he is already over forty years old, and composes eighty years old music." This in a letter to Elsner. Our Chopin could be amazingly sarcastic on occasion.
See here, Sam, and you too, Schmitt, I am in love with that girl in the boat. Do you suppose I would ever have her come on this deck, if I believed she might contract cholera? You do as I say, and you are perfectly safe. Now Schmitt remain at the wheel, and you Sam come with me. There will be a dead nigger aboard unless you jump when I speak."
Two days later, Charlie married the Widow Schmitt "Rattlesnake Dick" "Again swings the lash on the high mountain trail, And the pipe of the packer is scenting the gale; For the trails are all open, the roads are all free, And the highwayman's whistle is heard on the lea." Bret Harte. We were riding one day under the Digger pines, down an abandoned old road toward Mountaineer House.
He wore no longer the well-cut clothes of Mr. Douglas Romilly's Saville Row tailor, but a ready-made suit of Schmitt & Mayer's business reach-me-downs, an American felt hat and square-toed shoes. "She said a week," he repeated. "It's a fortnight to-day. I'll go to the restaurant at the corner. I must find out for myself what all this noise means, what the city has to say."
I have begun to get to know some of the crew by now; they are a fine lot of youngsters with a seasoning of half a dozen older men. The coxswain, Schmitt by name, is a splendid old petty officer who has been in the U-boat service since 1911. His favourite enjoyment is to spin yarns to the younger members of the crew, who know of his weakness and play up to it.
"Schmitt, sir what is the course, Captain Carlyle?" "Nor'west, by nor', and hold on as long as you can." "Ay, ay, sir; nor'west by nor' she is." I yet held Dorothy's hand tightly clasped in my own, and the depths of her uplifted eyes questioned me. "We will go aft, dear, and I will tell you the whole story," I said gently, "for now we are homeward bound."
'What does it show? 'Flannigan, three hundherd an' eighty-five; Hansen, forty-eight; Schwartz, twinty; O'Malley, sivinteen; Casey, ten; O'Day, eight; Larsen, five; O'Rourke, three; Mulcahy, two; Schmitt, two; Moloney, two; Riordon, two; O'Malley, two; Willie Boye, wan. 'Gintlemin, says Willie Boye, arisin' with a stern look in his eyes, 'th' rascal has bethrayed me.
'Ye'd have th' wurred on th' coffin lid, says I. 'Why, says he, 'think iv me, Schmitt, Owgoost Schmitt, stalkin' forth to avinge th' woes iv th' poor, he says. 'Loodwig, th' cursed, goes by. I jumps fr'm behind a three an' society is freed fr'm th' monsther, he says. 'Think iv th' glory iv it, he says. 'Owgoost Schmitt, emancipator, he says. 'I'll prove to Mary Ann that I'm a man, he says.
