him fire. His brother then found he
must charge him for board and lodging,
and his nephew was insolent. Under
these conditions Beethoven one day left
the house in an open carriage, caught

he arrived in Vienna December. 1896,
he Immediately sought his bed and
never again rose. Through the care
lessness of his nephew, who was en-

called for two days. and when finally
one was sent to him, he was found to be
in very dangerous condition. These
last days We're days of great trial and
sorrow to Beethoven. The Prince was
dead, and his other titled friends de-

The last sacrament of the Romish
church was administered to him on the
24th of February, and for two days he
wrestled with death in horrible agony
before he gave up the ghost Just as
| he died q great storm broke over ms
roofs of Vienna and with one last col
ossal effort Beethoven raised himself,
shook his fist at the sky whence had
come the thunder which reused him,
and fell back dead. He was buried with
great pomp and ceremony. The crowds
were so dense the police had to force
a way through. Among the torch bear
ers We're Czerny, Schubert and La
blache. A choir of sixteen men followed
the hearse singing the two Equal of the
dead composer. Thus closed the last
