I've a hunch Linrock's full of them. "Now, Jim, you've been here for years. So you must know a couple of men above suspicion." "Thank God I do, Russ," he replied feelingly. "Frank Morton an' Si Zimmer, my friends an' neighbors all my prosperous days. An' friends still. You can gamble on Frank and Si. But Russ, if you want advice from me, don't invest money in stock now." "Why?"
I had gone to the window, and as the Baron Zimmer and his groom mounted on horseback in the middle of the courtyard, in spite of the snow which was filling the air, I saw at the left in a turret, pierced with long Gothic windows, the pale countenance of Odile directed long and anxiously towards the young man. "Halloo, Fritz! what are you doing?" "I am only looking at those strangers' horses."
Of course, there was a pard outside, ready to pop in an' tell him if Steele was comin'. But Steele didn't come in that way. He wasn't on the street just before that time, because Zimmer told me afterward. Steele must have been in the Hope So somewhere. Any way, just like he dropped from the clouds he came through the door near the bar. Blome didn't see him come.
We must get permission." We arose joyfully and went to the hospital, when, the letter-carrier, coming out, stopped Zimmer, saying: "Are you Christian Zimmer, of the Second horse artillery?" "I have that honor, monsieur the carrier." "Well, here is something for you," said the other, handing him a little package and a large letter.
The difficulty of making sure of a bed when you are once detached from your home, was the philosophical reflection we arrived at, for nothing practical presented itself. To arm ourselves we pulled out Miss Goodwin's paper. 'Gasthof is the word! cried Temple. 'Gasthof, zimmer, bett; that means inn, hot supper, and bed. We'll ask. We asked several of the men.
As I finished reading this, Zimmer arrived, and in my joy, I said: "Sit down, Zimmer, and I will read you my sweetheart's letter. You will see whether she is a Margrédel." "Let me light my pipe first," he answered; and having done so, he added: "Go on, Josephel, but I warn you that I am an old bird, and do not believe all I hear; women are more cunning than we."
We have overwhelmed them with benefits and this is how they receive us!" But what shows better yet the ill-feeling of the people toward us was what happened us the day after the conclusion of the armistice, when, about eleven o'clock, we went together to bathe in the Elster. We had already thrown off our clothes, and Zimmer seeing a peasant approaching, cried: "Holloa, comrade!
Zimmer told me that in former times the good Germans came in crowds to see this game, and you could hear them laugh half a league off when the cat touched the rat with his club. But times were indeed changed; every one passed by now without even turning their heads; we only lost our labor when we tried to interest them in our favor.
Is there any danger here?" "No. Go in boldly," replied the man. "It is a good place." Zimmer, mistrusting nothing, went some fifteen feet out.
The glasses were handed us, and Zimmer, who observed nothing, tried to open a conversation with the students; but they excused themselves, and, one after another, went out. I saw that they hated us, but dared not show it. The gazette, which was from France, spoke of an armistice, after two new victories at Bautzen and Wurtschen.
