In addition to the pocketbook which
I had already investigated, there was
the passport Of Karl Won Emmerlch,
by means Of which I had entered
Germany, and several letters. It oc-
CURED to me that If l were to i'm
personate Karl successfully, it was eS-
sential that / should find out as much
as possible of his occupation and gen
eral habits. The servant at Number
33 Martinsgasse had addressed me as
Herr Lieutenant" I remembered. and
Karl had therefore evidently been In
the German army. On closer eXami-
nation of his papers, / discovered his
regiment. He had, ! found, been an
officer in the third regiment OF
foot guards, a famous corps which
had fought with great distinction
throughout the war, though they
had more than met their match
in the Coldstream at LandrecleS
during the retreat. Apart from
that. however, and the fact that
he appeared to belong to an East
Prussian family, having been born at
Heiligenbeil. I could learn nothing.

one | opened was a bill, apparently
from tailor, for a new uniform, from
which 1 judged that Won Emmerich
was still on the active list, though,
so far as I was aware. the PruSSidn
guard had been diSbanded or com
pletely transformed shortly after the
armiStiCe.
The second was from his mother
and contained various domestic news,
most of which was unintelligible TO
me. The conclusion of it, however,
was significant. 1t ran as follows:
You will, hope. my dearest Karl,
be careful to bear yourself well in
your new and difficult task. Almighty
God has graciouSly preserved you
throughout the terrible war. He
will, I know, support and strengthen
you in your present work. Remem-
ber dearest boy, that you come of
family which has had the honor to
serve the Kings of Prussia since the
days of the Great Frederick. and
though. alas an Emperor no longer
rules in Berlin, you must never he
false to the great and honorable tradi-
tions of your house. Do your duty
bravely, no matter down what paths
ii may lead you. In doing so. you will
prove a valiant son of Germany and
make proud the heart of your old and
loving MOTHER"
There was something very moving
in this appeal. Karl was obviously
a cherished son, and I found myself
hoping that his mother would never
learn the facts of his unhappy death.
The third letter was the inevitable

acquaintance in Berlin, imploring

to play would obviously be much more
