Under him there were four armies, each under a German general: that under Von Bülow in the extreme north; that under Von Eichhorn to the south of the former and facing the Niemen River and the fortress of Kovno; the two other armies under Von Scholtz and Von Gallwitz the latter the farthest south were to attack the Nareff-Bobr line between Novo Georgievsk and Lomza.
"New arrivals from zee interior," answered Scholtz; "dere be always vaggins comin' ant goin'." "The camp is a changin' one," said Dally, sipping his tea with the air of a connoisseur.
They had merely thrown themselves down in their clothes, and appeared in an instant. Mrs Brook and Gertie were also ready, but Mrs Scholtz, being fond of comfort, had partially undressed, and was distracted between a wild effort to fasten certain garments, and restrain Junkie, who, startled by the shout, was roaring lustily.
"Do you know where where the knife is kept?" asked Mrs Merton. Mrs Scholtz knew, and brought it from the kitchen. It was a keen serviceable knife, with a viciously sharp point. Mrs Merton received it, coughed, and hurried out to the sheep-fold, followed by her accomplices.
Wedekind consented, because he was ill, but he made his protest, and justly so. The Marquis of Keith is a larger canvas. It is a modern rogues' comedy. Barry Lyndon is hardly more entertaining. The marquis is the son of an humble tutor in the house of a count whose son later figures as Ernest Scholtz. The marquis is a swindler in the grand manner.
When he had gone out, without having condescended to notice any of the household, Master Junkie gave vent to a long-suspended howl, and claimed the undivided attention of Mrs Scholtz, whose touching blandishments utterly failed in quieting him.
"Perhaps a tarantula," suggested Gertie, who only clasped her hands and looked horrified. "Quick!" exclaimed Mrs Brook, breaking the unmanageable tape. "Ze chile is growing black and vill bust!" murmured Scholtz in real alarm.
But they'll niver do it; for, 'ee see, they want mind an' body withoot mind is but a puir thing after a', Mrs Scholtz." "I'm not so shure of zat," put in Scholtz, stretching his huge frame and regarding it complacently; "it vould please me better to have body vidout mint, zan mint vidout body." "H'm! 'ee've reason to be pleased then," muttered Black, drily.
Master Junkie Brook, lying in a packing-box, which served as an extempore crib, in the cottage of Kenneth McTavish, opened his large round eyes and rubbed them. Getting up, he observed that Mrs Scholtz was sound asleep, and quietly dressed himself. He was a precocious child, and had learned to dress without assistance.
"What a rumpus!" growled Dally, taking himself off to the kitchen. Scholtz gave no immediate expression to his feelings, but, lifting his better half from the grass, he tucked her under one of his great arms, and, with the muttered commentary, "zhe shrieckz like von mad zow," carried her off to his own apartment, where he deluged her with cold water and abuse till she recovered.
