I speak from my heart. I have come to speak with the noble man, face to face, to know him who through his glorious work has inspired me with such respect. " My name is Colonel von Holbach — pensioned — hard case — degraded, I would say — Copenhagen — first Royal Garde Regi- ment of Foot. Had fifty-five years of service — often wounded — made many campaigns. The devil knows, Herr Pastor, how it goes with old soldiers in times of peace — want condolence from no man. You are a true man — you softe...ned my heart — made me weep like a child ; have forgiven all my enemies — am proud of my discharge, and all this through you, Herr Pastor — on my honor, all through you." The worthy Senior did not comprehend more than half that the old soldier said ; but he knew that he had come to manifest his respect. Pastor Gotze, therefore, accepted the flattering compliment the old soldier paid to his " glorious work" as a sincere applause for his morning sermon. He was convinced that the Danish officer had been one of his audience, and he answered, with unction, " God be thanked, you are most heartily welcome, my honored Colonel.
