Cassini, in 1678, made it 25·58; Delambre, in 1775, no more than twenty-five days. Later inquiries brought these divergences within no more tolerable limits. Laugier's result of 25·34 days obtained in 1841 enjoyed the highest credit, yet it differed widely in one direction from that of Böhm , giving 25·52 days, and in the other from that of Kysæus , giving 25·09 days.
It must be said of Gazza that he, too, made a certain presence of interest in the traditions of Kings Port. "After the revocation of the Edict of Nantes," replied Mrs. Weguelin. "Built it in Savannah," Charley was saying to Bohm, "or Norfolk. This is a good place to bury people in, but not money. Now the phosphate proposition "
I noticed that Beverly Rodgers and Gazza figured prominently among the invited guests: Bohm did not have to be invited, for some time before the wedding he had become the husband of the successfully divorced Kitty. So much for the nuptials of Hortense and Charley; they were, as one paper pronounced them, "up to date and distingue."
He shook his head heavily. "Fourth, he is running away to Hamburg to listen always to Hamburg, to listen to Reinken, and coming back to be forgiven. Ja, ja! Seven times I have forgiven him. I think he is making ready now to go once more!" He glared at his companion. Bohm nodded slowly. "I was to ask you for that to-day," he said, smiling. "Ja! ja I have thought so."

Yes, this marriage was solemnized, a word that I used above without forethought, and now repeat with intention; for certainly no respecter of language would write it of the yellow rich and their blatant unions. If you're a Bohm or a Charley, you may trivialize or vulgarize or bestialize your wedding, but solemnize it you don't, for that is not "up to date."
He sprang to his feet. "We will go to the festival, the great Bach festival. You, my little son, shall play like a true Bach." As they walked along the road he hummed contentedly to himself, speaking now and then a word to the boy. "What makes one Bach great, makes all. Remember, my child, Reinken is great but he is only one; and Bohm and Buxtehude, Pachelbel. But we are many all Bachs all great."
Is it conceivable under all these circumstances, that he should have had this all-important lamp in his possession from 1872 to 1893, and yet no one have heard of it or seen it except his son? It cannot be said that ignorance of the English language offers an excuse. He knew English very well although Bohm and Dreyer conversed with him in German. His children spoke English.
From Alard we have Sarasate, and from Léonard, Marsick and Dengremont, while through Rode we have Böhm, and from him a large number of eminent violinists, including G. Hellmesberger, Ernst, Dont, Singer, L. Strauss, Joachim, Rappoldi. Some of them we shall refer to at length as great performers, others were celebrated more as teachers.
Bohm look at the church!" and she turned after Mrs. Weguelin. "It is such a gem!" But I saw the little lady try to speak and fail, and then I noticed that she was leaning against a window-sill. Beverly Rodgers also noticed this, and he hastened to her. "Thank you," she returned to his hasty question, "I am quite well. If you are not tired of it, shall we go on?"
