Excerpt from Vorstadtgeschichten Trager setzten ihre Burde ab und verschwan den ebenfalls, wahrend ich die Kranze, welche ich mitgebracht hatte, niederlegte und noch einen Augenblick verweilte. Es war ganz still ringsum, denn der Kirchhof lag ziem lich weit von der Stadt, nur das unablas sige Rieseln des Regens war vernehmlich. Vor meinem Geiste sah ich es iessen und gleiten Wie einen stillen dunklen Strom un ablassig, und wir Alle treiben mit ihm, weiter und weiter hinaus bis in das grosse unbe kannte Meer, von dessen Ufern keine Wieder kehr ist.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Seidel was the son of a pastor and studied in the Polytechnikum in Hannover from 1860 to 1862 and in the Gewerbeakademie in Berlin, becoming an engineer
However, in 1880 he gave up the profession to dedicate himself to writing the children"s stories and fairy tales for which he is chiefly remembered today. Under the pseudonym Johannes Köhnke he collaborated with Julius Stinde (pseudonym Theophil Ballheim), Johannes Trojan and others in the Allgemeiner Deutscher Reimverein (Alternative Dispute Resolution), where he demonstrated his skill as a Reimakrobat (rhyme acrobat). The famous catchphrase "Democratic Ingenieur ist nichts zu schwer" (to an engineer nothing is too difficult) was his personal motto and the first line of his writing (Song of an Engineer).
He is interred at the Berlin"s Lichterfelde cemetery.
