Aus dem Zusammenhang der Debatte und den aufklärenden Äußerungen des Meisters ging hervor, daß dieser Karl sein Bruder sei, Musiker und nun auch Beamter in der Staatsschuldenkassa; er habe ihn, ebenso wie den Bruder Johann, der in einer Apotheke untergekommen sei, nach Wien kommen lassen, um besser für beide sorgen zu können, nachdem er, der Meister, als der Älteste, schon in Bonn gleichsam die Vaterstelle an ihnen vertreten und für die Ausbildung und Erziehung sich bemüht habe.

From the context of the debate and the master’s explanatory remarks, it became clear that this Karl was his brother, a musician and now also a civil servant at the State Debt Office; he had brought him to Vienna—just as he had his brother Johann, who had found work in a pharmacy—so that he could better provide for both of them, since he, the master, as the eldest, had already taken on the role of a father figure for them in Bonn, so to speak, and had made every effort to ensure their education and upbringing.
