to accompany David in Austria.

And on the following day some-thing happened that I had not expected at all... Some friends visited us at the château, bring-ing with them two dogs, who soon made friends with "Slipper," and in a moment when our backs were turned they all ran off into the woods to chase a wild rabbit. The friends' two dogs came back, but Slipper did not. My mind was anxious over him, and I asked one of my women friends to go with me to the woods, and there, on one of the winding paths, I caught sight of a gray-colored rag; and when we drew nearer I knew it was the dog himself... He was sprawled on the green grass, his eyes bulging and his limbs gone stiff... Slipper was dead — the dog who had shared our sorrows and our joys. I wept for him bitterly, and I said to myself in grief: Is it written that I must lose everything dear?...

April passed, and with it the arrangements for the wedding went forward; we never thought of inviting all our friends to the celebration, which was confined to the intimates who had not deserted us in the hard hours. David asked his friend Major "Edward Metcalfe" to be the witness of the marriage; but he went on burning for his sister and his brothers and his mother to attend this momentous event in his life... And, as was his usual way, he kept these thoughts to himself without declaring them to anyone. I alone suffered over the feelings that came upon him in that particular period: the friends among whom he had spent his life, the palace that had witnessed his childhood and his youth, and the family that had embraced him — all of these would not acknowledge his marriage, or spare him a portion of their attention... as though a cold iron curtain had been drawn between him and them for the rest of life...
