But at Hendon, a north-west suburb of London, has recently been placed against the church wall a still simpler memorial, a small slab of marble, inscribed: Carl Richard Loose B. 21. 1. 52: D. 14. 10. 81. For brevity in excelsis the following, from the cemetery at Heidelberg, can hardly be eclipsed: Michael Seiler 1805. 1887.
Zacharias was all emotion a rush of hot blood, which made his heart beat, as it did at twenty, coursed through his veins. Blushing, he arose to his feet. "Good-day, my pretty one!" he said. "Ah!" she said, with a bright smile, "it is Mr. Zacharias Seiler!"
Seiler, happy and contented, full of joyous hope, ascended to his room, putting off until to-morrow his declaration, not doubting for a moment but that it would be accepted. About this time of the year the mountaineers from Harberg, Kusnacht and the surrounding hamlets descend from their mountains about one o'clock in the morning and commence to mow the high grass in the valleys.
Finding that it was considered as a reproach that the churches of Lowenburg were empty, he called the whole Council together on the 9th of April, 1631, and informed them that the women must be brought to conformity, or else there were towers and prisons for them. The Burgomaster was ill in bed, but the Judge, one Elias Seiler, spoke up at once.
One of those most eminently equipped, by a great variety of qualities, for the investigation of this subject, or any other question of the voice, was Madame Seiler. Whenever the author is obliged to differ from this really great investigator, he does so with the sense of the highest respect for her opinions generally, because she always sought for scientific grounds for such opinions.
Ah, my wife is right when she calls you our benefactor." Mr. Zacharias seated himself at the little round table, placing his pole behind him; Charlotte sat facing him, Yeri Foerster was on his right; then dinner was served and Mr. Seiler started to speak of his plans for the future. He was wealthy and had inherited a fine fortune from his parents.
And during the year John Kemp, Cornelius Morse, Mitchell Steever, C.C. Chamberlin and Henry Seiler were added. This amount would be considered a small allowance at the present time, but at that early day it was believed to be a generous provision for a family of three persons. My first Sabbath, always a trial day to the Preachers as well as the people, passed without any special disaster.
Fifteen days afterward, Karl Imnant received the appointment of forester, taking his father's place. Eight days later, he and Charlotte were married. The guests drank the rich Rikevir wine, so highly esteemed by Yeri Foerster, and which seemed to him to have arrived so opportunely for the feast. Mr. Zacharias Seiler was not present that day at the wedding, being ill at home.
Sébaldus, barring the passage with his burly form, as Horatius guarded the bridge in the brave days of old, shouted to all "Your five kreutzers, friends and neighbours! Five kreutzers for admittance! Pay, or I'll throttle you!" It was an awful confusion; people climbed over each other's backs to get in faster, until Bridget Kéra lost a stocking and Anna Seiler half her petticoat.
"The regulation of the force of the blast which strikes against the vocal cords, the placing of these in the most favourable position for the effect which it is desired to produce, and the direction of the vibrating column of air which issues from the larynx are the three elements of artistic production." Mme. Seiler expresses the idea somewhat differently, but the meaning is about the same.
