Lichtenstein.

Angelo fulfilled punctiliously the duties of his new vocation,
and he went daily to the prince's home, in order to watch over
the pupil recommended to his care. The Prince, seeing that the
long walk might be difficult for Angelo, especially in inclement
weather, offered him a residence. There again was Angelo settled,
for the second time, in the Lichtenstein palace; but he took with
him his family. He lived there in retreat as before in the

not seen him for twenty or thirty years, mistook him for his son,
and treated him according to this error.

Suffering a stroke of apoplexy in the street, at the age of
seventy-five, people hastened to give him succor which was
useless. He died, November 21, 1796, mourned by all his friends,
who cannot think of him without emotion, and without tears. The
