Der Sohn, der der Sekretär seines Vaters gewesen war, war zugleich mit seinem Chef zurückgetreten, was man damals ziemlich närrisch fand, und als der Titel einige Monate später auf ihn überging, hatte er sich dem ernsthaften Studium der großen aristokratischen Kunst gewidmet, absolut nichts zu tun.

The son, who had been his father's secretary, had resigned at the same time as his boss, which was considered rather foolish at the time, and when the title passed to him a few months later, he had devoted himself to the serious study of the great aristocratic art, by doing absolutely nothing.
