Clevi, who was gifted with a far-carrying voice, began: "Come out, you ghost of Wildenstein!" And the boys with voices of thunder chimed in: "For we are not afraid." "Just look! Who is coming there? Who can it be?" said Kurt, staring at the terrace. An incredibly tall figure, which could not possibly be human, was wandering across the terrace with slow steps.
He looked like a frightful giant as he wandered up and down the big room, and Kurt recognized the ghost of Wildenstein he had seen that dreadful night. Salo, with his charming disposition, soon entirely won over his uncle, who decided to send his nephew to the neighboring town to study, and Salo and Bruno were to spend their study-time as well as their holidays together.
With the horrible apparition he had probably meant to punish and banish the boys for good. "Oh, Kurt," the mother concluded, "I hope I can rely on you from now on not to have anything more to do with the matter of the fabulous ghost of Wildenstein." Kurt could give his honest promise, for he had enough of his endeavour to prove the non-existence of the ghost.
She had, to all appearance, become "Castle Apollonie" again. Loneli, wearing a pretty dress and carrying a huge bouquet of flowers, stepped up to Leonore. Then she handed her the flowers and recited in a clear, impressive voice the following words which Apollonie had composed herself: "Thrice welcome to this home of thine, Lady of Castle Wildenstein."
From the time when he reappeared till to-day, Mr. Trius has led a solitary life and sees no one except Apollonie, and her only when he is in need of her. However hard Apollonie tried to make him tell about his master, he would not do it. You know now about my happy life in Wildenstein and will be able to understand the reason why I moved here again after the death of your father.
You know, too, that mother wants you to call the castle watchman Mr. Trius and not just Trius." "Oh, yes, I'll call him Mr. Trius, but I'll make up such a song about him that everybody will know who it is about," Kurt said threateningly. "How can he help it when there is no ghost in Wildenstein about which he could tell you tales," Mea remarked.
Loneli hated to see him that way and could not help pondering about this remarkable change. Being extremely observant, she had noticed that it was very hard to find out the truth about the night expedition to the castle. All the boys' answers consisted in dark allusions to the fact that the ghost was wandering about Wildenstein more than ever.
"He might want to wipe away the dust for once in his life; it's about time," Kurt's mother replied. "I don't believe the master has returned." "Why should the tower windows, where the master always lived, be opened then? Something unusual has happened," said Mrs. Apollonie significantly. "The ghost of Wildenstein might have pushed them open," Kurt quickly asserted.
Don't make two out of them, Mäzli! All the world knows that Mr. Trius is the Steward of Castle Wildenstein; he is one person and not two." Then Mäzli answered, "Mr. Trius is one and the Castle-Steward is another. They are two people and not one." After they had repeated this about three times Bruno said, "Oh, Kurt, leave her alone. Mäzli thinks that there are two, when she calls him first Mr.
He could therefore tell her without reserve how terribly he had been cast down the last few days. The weight had been very heavy on his heart before his confession, because he had been so ashamed of the miserable end of the undertaking. He had, moreover, been very much afraid that she would tell him that no ghost of Wildenstein existed, after he himself had seen the incredible apparition.
