The Case brought into talk again an old Miller Case of Friedrich's, which had been famous above thirty years ago, when Sans-Souci was getting built.

Readers know it: Potsdam Miller, and his obstinate Windmill, which still grinds on its knoll in those localities, and would not, at any price, become part of the King's Gardens.

"Not at any price ?" said the King's agent: "Cannot the King take it from you for nothing, if he chose ?" "Have n't we the Kammergericht at Berlin!" answered the Miller.

To Friedrich's great delight, as appears;--which might render the Windmill itself a kind of ornament to his Gardens thenceforth.

The French admiration over these two Miller Cases continued to be very great.
