He decided that the first thing to do was to fetch Madame Simonneau, who lived close at hand, in the Boulevard Bineau, in the residential part of the café. He closed the gate carefully, and went in search of the housekeeper. Once on the boulevard, he recovered his equanimity.
There was also Philomene Simonneau, the young Vendeenne, whose left leg was perforated by three horrible sores in the depths of which her carious bones were visible, and whose bones, whose flesh, and whose skin were all formed afresh.
He instructed her to cover it with a sheet, and to hold herself at the disposal of the commissary and the doctor, who would come for the particulars. She replied, somewhat nettled, that she knew please God, what she had to do. She did indeed know. Madame Simonneau was born in a social circle which is obsequious to the constituted authorities and respects the dead.
Other falsehoods just as extravagant are nearly all grotesque. "Simonneau, mayor of d'Etampes, is an infamous ministerial monopolizer." Delessart, the minister, "accepts gold to let a got-up decree be passed against him." Cf. "Placard de Marat," Sept. 18, 1792. Cf. See also subsequent numbers, especially No. 680, Aug. 19th, for hastening on the massacre of the Abbaye prisoners.

The secretary and the police agent, Madame Simonneau showing the way, carried the body up to the first floor. Monsieur Josse-Arbrissel was biting his nails and looking into space. "A tragedy of jealousy," he remarked, "nothing is more common. We have here in Neuilly a steady average of self-inflicted deaths. Out of a hundred suicides thirty are caused by gambling.
Madame Simonneau was bustling to and fro, actuated by an urgent desire to procure a crucifix and a bough of consecrated box-wood for the dead. The doctor examined the corpse by the light of a candle. He was a bulky man with a ruddy complexion. He breathed noisily. He had just dined.
