Md sueh sslinrpses ok the an
eient histotv of the eonntrz that
haie eome doun to us- all testikz
that Slesvig nas Danish up to
the Erden
The renowned Danish historian
of the middle ages, saxo Gram
-matiens, has present-ed several
old tales ahout wars hetween the
Danes and ("iermans, and all of
these te—stif·v, that the Byder is
the old horder hetween these two
peoples.
Prom the 9tlh Ohnisstian een
tury we have a tezstimony to tshe
same efkeet from the great Ang
losssaxson hing-, Aslfved the Great
(l). 901)· In his gesograpehy he
satys about the harhor ot· Rede
-hy on the Slie (-now the eity of
siesvig): «It «lies between the
Wen-ds, saxons and Auge-I and
shelongs to the Danes." Adam of
lBremen (11th eentury) says in
shis diseriptjon ok Denm-ark: «’1’.he
Jntlanders live all the way,
from the Byder 11iorth.« And
Adam might to know, tfor he
was a eanon of the are(h-dioeese
of Bremen, and Denmarlc was un
scler the areh-hishop ok Bremen
till 1104. And in this way we
might keep on hringing up Mr
ticsyes, hnt it is not n«eeessary.
The history ok slessvig from
125 0 till about 1840 js, more or
less one eontinuous history of
negligenee and niisrnle ot· this
old, not to say oldesst part of
l)enmarlc, from the side of the
Danish government, as far as the
lhusish language and Danish
institutioin ure eoneernetL the
country heing dividesd and sub
divided hetween the Uanish
Rings, the dulces of Slesvig-Ilol
stein, nnd I don·.t know what
not s—eaeh landlord introdnes
link; whnt lansgtiage he pleased
in ehureh and seihosols, without
asking shis people or Sulijeets,
so it is more than wonderkul
that- any remnant ok Dianish lan
guage and Danish nationalisty
was left in tshe people. But in
spite ok all divisions, all high
shanided misrn-le, the plueslky Jot
1andsers stuek to their native soil
and their home language, learn
.ing how-German enough to gest
alonsg and understand their lords
and superior-s, waiting for bet
ter times to oome.
Wie hist-erz- of slesvig sinee
1864 under a fsoreign government
that shad no right whatever to
this integral part ot« De11111ark,
not as much as to eover the tip
