Article: Roda Roda, Grandfather's Vade Mecum (by Alexander Friedrich Ladislaus Roda Roda, 1872-1945). [Roda Roda, Grandfather's Vade Mecum.] The eight-hour train ride was finally almost over. Jesus, that was torture! The inhuman heat, the dust and smoke. There were three or four ladies in the corridor who kept standing outside to get a bit of air. He couldn't join them, he would have had to button his dress-shirt and put on his tie. In this glowing heat? He preferred to try all six velvet seats one after the other, staying in each for half an hour, smoking — and sighing with boredom, heat and impatience. Then the strangely shaped mountains that gave the city its name appeared at its feet. They rise up from the plain without any transition, the tent mountains, and in the uncertain light of the evening they really do resemble large camp tents. Many years ago, as a little boy, he passed by here every year — with his dad and mom when they went on vacation. Back then, his boyish imagination conjured up a huge army in these giant tents. The pounding of the train sounded to him like the noise of battle. Shuddering with horror and pleasure, he had imagined how the tent walls would open in the morning mist: trumpeters in front, and behind them, sparkling in the red early morning light, the armored riders, the glittering giant snake stretching its lambent head from Zeltstadt — swords spraying, a thousand wounds burning, and in the evening the hero who rode first behind the trumpeters into the young morning enters Zeltstadt as the victor. Georg looked back at the vanished mountains with a smile. The sun was shining brightly today and chased away all fantasies. The battle had never been fought — Zeltstadt lay peacefully as it had twenty years ago, enjoying prosperous progress thanks to the mayor's care. Finally, finally, the little station, Georg's destination. Greeted reverently by the official, he passed through the platform gate, stepped out onto the street and looked around searchingly. At the same moment, Mathes, his old coachman, stopped the horses. "Excuse me, Your Grace, the train has arrived on time today…" — Mathes had not expected such coincidences. "Good day — how are you?" Georg wanted to ask — but swallowed his words. Why provoke complaints that he didn't know the answer to? He only glanced briefly at Mathes. "It doesn't matter. I've only just got out." — A brief nod. Mathes left his place on the coachman's seat and sat down on the servant's seat. The young gentleman took the reins. Otherwise, in the old days, Mathes had been allowed to sit next to the young gentleman, who then gave him one of the city cigarettes and let him tell him something. Now he sat at the back — dismissed, condemned to silence. — And Mathes' heart became even sadder. They drove through the countryside between fields and meadows. The fields had been cleared, dark clumps of sheep were grazing on the poor weeds. One particularly good host had already pulled up his stubble. The land strip of Neuriss ran like a promise through the sadly tired, monotonously yellow, hopeless stubble land. … [continued on page 8].

Article: Roda Roda, Grandfather's Vade Mecum (by Alexander Friedrich Ladislaus Roda Roda, 1872-1945). [Roda Roda, Grandfather's Vade Mecum.] [Continued from page 6] … Now the first village. Geese, chickens and children, who had been playing together in the dust, fled to the safety of the yard. The dogs jumped yapping at the wheels, accompanied the wagon a little way and then stayed behind, conscious of their duty fulfilled. The farmers greeted them with their hats tipped low. They did not greet Georg. They tipped their hats to the yellow wagon, to Mathesen's blue coat — as their fathers had done forty or fifty years ago to another yellow wagon, another blue coat — without waiting for a return greeting or thanks. Baron Neudorf held the reins in his fists then too. Him or another — the peasants are the same, their greeting is for the family. In the middle of the fourth village, Georg turned sharply to the right, into his park, and stopped at the ramp. Without looking back at Mathes, he walked up the ten steps into the house. The coachman's wife — his parents' former cook — came to meet him. He also returned her greeting fleetingly, intimidatingly. — The matter must be dealt with as briefly as possible, as gently as possible. There's a huge, boring document that two clever lawyers have drawn up, eager to somehow pull a particularly devious trick on each other. Tomorrow he puts his name to it — and that's it… Everything that was there has then sunk: — parental home — childhood memories — yes, even worries and debts. Sunk as if it had never been. Like the rider in the moor under the tent mountain — the legend once eerily resounded in his childhood room. — The corner room to the right of the hall was his nursery. Just enough time for a walk through the park. Georg stepped out of the drawing room onto the small terrace facing the garden. They used to drink coffee here… From both sides, large spruce trees stretched their branches towards each other like eternally separated lovers. As if they had escaped from the coniferous forest that surrounded the park's large lawn. Arabesques of rose-colored asters flowed down the slope. But in front of the black, austere spruces — far above — stood a maple tree in a coquettish, light-colored silk dress — like a small, anemic, nervous duchess in the circle of her cavaliers. Georg strode aimlessly around. He had walked through the avenues of chestnut trees and along the rose path, before which the stream of blossoming asters respectfully stopped. Then a hoarse bell called for dinner. Mathesen's wife had prepared it. He didn't really like the taste of it. "Last meal," he remembered, and the bite stuck in his throat. He sat alone — at the head of the table that had so often seen a cheerful round in his childhood years. Where were they all who had sat here? What would they say to the news that he had sold his parents' house? His gaze slid over the shelves that ran around the walls of the dining room. The Meissen plates, his grandfather's pride and joy — must they too…? God, what should he do with them? The clock? The tired portrait of a woman laughing at him? Who is she? And who was she? Georg suddenly stopped eating and retreated to the library. "You must go to bed, Mathes. Tomorrow morning you'll fetch two gentlemen from the train… your new masters." "Oh, Your Grace — Mr. Georg…" Georg waved his hand so imperiously that the coachman disappeared without a word. Then he sat alone in the still, silent night. And sat in the same place where his father, grandfather and great-grandfather had sat before him, worrying and calculating, pondering and deciding. … (end on page 35).
