friend, an Austrian merchant, Kopel, who
had the precious boxes, of which there was
quite load, removed as merchandise be-
longing to him. They were put on board
OF vessel about to leave for England, and
the same evening Bergh left for London.
Meanwhile Fincke had arrived at Ham,
burg. He met at the railway station Os-
valid, the Consul General Of Prussia, and
Stegemann, the Vice Consul. He applied to
them to know whether the Prince had
arrived in Hamburg. They replied that he
had not, and expressed doubt whether he
would be well received by the people of the
town. At this moment a man employed at
The railway station came up and told them
that three gentlemen, evidently disguised
and looking as if they wished to keep
out of sight, had left the train at Bsrge-
dorf, the last station before Hamburg, and
that he had every reason to believe that
one of them was the Prince of Prussia.
F1ncke and the two Consuls got at once into
carriage and proceeded to Bergedorf. 1t
was dark when they arrived. The only inn
in the place was already closed. They
knocked several times at the door. At last
window in the second story was opened
and head cautiously peered out to see
who was there. 1T is Maj. Won Fincke,
said that gentleman. The door was then
opened and Olrichs came to meet them.
In two minutes more they were in the pres
ence of the Prince.
He told them he had been three times
compelled to leave the railway within Prus-
sian territory, having constantly met with
persons who used threats of death against
him. To save his life he Fad found it neces-
sary 20 walk long distances on foot some
times hiding in barns, sometimes in peasants
cottages. He had disguised himself, after
cutting off his beard. Heunderwent all the
privations of fugitive, fearing to be
again recognized. He was considering
the means of getting on board a vessel,
about to start for England, without
being recognized. Oswald possessed a
property on the banks of the Elbe at Blanke-
nase, on Danish territory, and begged the
Prince to go to his house. The offer
of hospitality was accepted The Prince
got into the Consul's carriage with Oswald
and Fiucke, and drove through Hamburg
and Altoona, arriving at the villa of Oswald,
where for the first time since his departure
from Berlin he was able to lie on a led.
Next day the fugitive Prince went on board
vessel about TO start for London, under
the name of Muller, accompanied by his
aide-de-camp. Fincke also went on board
with him, and did not leave until he saw
him settled in his cabin
All this happened from March IS to IS,
1S48, that is to say, exactly 40 years ago,
and is in striking contrast to the ceremony
