pioneering purposes. But always held
aloof.
The outcome of the treacherous
malady which killed Emperor Fred
erick III. was frankly told me in ad-
vance by German physicians called in
to consultation as experts by the Eng
lish physician, Sir Morrell Mackenzie.
Ny deep grief and sorrow were all the
greater because il was almost impos-
sible for me to speak alone with my
beloved father He was guarded like
a prisoner by the English physicians
and though reporters from all coun-
tries could look upon the poor SICK
man from the physicians room, every
kind of obstacle was placed in my pain
to keep me from fathers side and even
to prevent my keeping in constant
touch with him by writing; my letters
were often intercepted and not deliver
ed. Moreover, from among the group
of watchers, an infamous, organized
campaign of SANDER was conducted in
the newspapers against me. Two jour
nalists were especially active in this:
one Herr Schmidrowitz and NJ. JAG
ques St Cere, of the Figaro Ger

as Emperor He delighted his son by
writing on this occasion, on a little
card, that he was grateful for having
had the pleasure of seeing these troops
and proud to call them his own. This
event was a ray of light during the
gloomy SO days, which brought upon
me also, as Crown Prince, much grief,
humiliation and suspicion. In fulfill
ment of my duty during this crisis,
kept watchful eye upon all happen
ings in military, official and social cir
cles. and was inwardly outraged at the
signs of slackness which / noted every
where, most especially at the hostility
against my mother, which was becom-
