"Impossible!" they all exclaimed at once.
The lawyer turned his back on them repeating:
"I tell you there is not another word!"
"And the rest of his fortune, his estates in Bohemia?"
"There is no mention of them. I can only read what I see written here; you must at least understand that, gentlemen."
"It is incomprehensible," groaned Gáspár.
"The curious part of it is," remarked Boldizsár, "that there is no mention of that woman and her son."
"Yes, of course," answered Gáspár, "it does seem strange."
The lawyer hastened to reassure them.
"It can make no difference to you," he said. "Whatever fortune there may be that is not mentioned in the will falls to you in any case."
