the Mayor ordered two policemen to stay by him day and night 
and accompany him wherever he went. 
The Daumer apartment being too small to accommodate this 
addition to the family, and the house being at an inconvenient 
distance for the policemen, the Mayor decided to remove Kaspar 
‘0 a more central part of the city, and Professor Daumer willingly 
acquiesced in the plan, as his own health was at this time ex- 
rremely delicate and he felt the need of rest and complete freedom 
from care. Accordingly a lodging was taken in the house of 
Herr Bieberbach, a merchant and city councillor, where Kaspar 
was sure of careful guardianship on the part of the family, the 
service of the two policemen being also retained. 
This change was generally considered advisable ; but Baron 
Tucher, a sensible and experienced man, thought otherwise, and 
expressed his discontent in several letters to Ritter von Feuer- 
yach, who, from his home in Ansbach, still kept himself informed 
of all that concerned Kaspar Hauser’s welfare. 
Herr von Tucher described Herr Bieberbach as an excellent 
man in his way ; but not the person to forward the foundling’s 
development. He was merely a business man, a merchant, 
spending his whole time behind the counter, and therefore 
obliged to leave Kaspar entirely under the charge of his wife, a 
nervous, morbidly excitable person, whose influence over the boy 
could not but be disastrous. Also, the constant company of the 
wo policemen was considered by von Tucher as bad for Kaspar, 
though, doubtless, necessary for his safety.

Another mistake connected with Kaspar's removal from 
Professor Daumer’s charge was the sending him to the Gymna- 
sium, instead of allowing him to pursue his studies under private 
-uition, as before. 
Not only was he compelled to attend school regularly ; but he 
was entered in one of the higher classes, where Latin was the 
principal occupation. 
From a being who, to all intents and purposes, had been less
