"His mysterious disappearance gave rise to a thousand strange surmises. The whole settlement turned out in search of the boy.

Landlord, boots, and chambermaid, overwhelmed me with exclamations, surmises, and incoherent summaries of the night’s news. There had been an outbreak. Lieber Herr, a revolution! One entire house razed to the ground. “Hep! hep!” that is the old cry, “Down with the Jews!” All their bones would be made powder of. Tremendous funeral of Kugelblitz. Students on their way in a body from Heidelberg.
