A file from the Hanover police headquarters dated August 19, 1847, which was obtained from Vormärz , notes on Hoppe:

"... resigned from the service since 1839, since then on miserably living on literary work, sunk in drunkenness and a disorderly life, was arrested overnight for homelessness and the rest of the process was initiated because of his punishment and removal from here. "
