Conjecturing that Calle Anloague was to be the scene of action, thither the youth directed his steps, hurrying forward and getting ahead of the carriages, which were, in fact, all moving toward the former house of Capitan Tiago there they were assembling in search of a ball, but actually to dance in the air!

He laughed like one condemned to death and patted the butt of the revolver. The boxes of cartridges were also in his pockets. A question suddenly occurred to him where would the drama begin? In his bewilderment he had not thought of asking Simoun, but the latter had warned him to keep away from Calle Anloague.

"I came to see you " "Noble conduct!" exclaimed Makaraig laughing. "In time of calm, you avoid us." The corporal asked Basilio his name, then scanned a list.
