Le Chevalier answered for the assistance of Mme. Acquet de Férolles, whom he easily persuaded to hide the men for a few days at least; he also offered as a meeting-place his house in the Rue de Saint-Sauveur at Caen.
Lastly there are the Filipinos, the men in huge straw hats, the women in bright yellow muslin with great puffed sleeves. It is the meeting-place of East and West. The very new rubs shoulders with the immeasurably old. And if you have not found the romance you expected you have come upon something singularly intriguing.
There, in Bethlehem, he had passed the dreamy years of his childhood and youth amid the love of his parents and brothers, whom he now had with him; there he fed his sheep and sang to his harp; and there, morning and evening, he gathered with others about the well the meeting-place of his companions loved with all the passionate energy of his nature, and still loved in spite of the troublous times that had come upon him.
The manner in which it had come into our possession suggested that it might contain something of the utmost value to the Yellow group.
