Even in his fear and ghastly anxiety, the subconscious mind of George Masson was saying, "He looks like the Baron of Beaugard like the Baron of Beaugard that killed the man who abused his wife." It was so. Great-great-grand-nephew of the Baron of Beaugard as he was, Jean Jacques looked like the portrait of him which hung in the Manor Cartier.
'For, if not, say on, and then go; and go so far you cannot see the sky that covers Beaugard. We are even now we can cry quits. But that I have a little injured you, you should be done for instantly. But hear me: if I ever see you again, my gallows shall end you straight.
Added thereto was the thing which had been greatly stirred in him at the instant the Antoine struck; and now he kept picturing Carmen in the big living-room and the big bedroom of the house by the mill, where was the comfortable four-poster which had come from the mansion of the last Baron of Beaugard down by St. Laurent.
You and she have said your last farewell in this world for the wife of the Baron of Beaugard can have nothing to say to Garoche the soldier. At that Garoche snarled out, 'The wife of the Baron of Beaugard, that is a lie to shame all hell. The Baron wound the lash of a riding-whip round and round his fingers quietly and said: 'It is no lie, my man, but the truth. Garoche eyed him savagely, and growled: 'The Church made her my wife yesterday; and you you you ah, you who had all you with your money and place, which could get all easy, you take the one thing I have!
But long after they had gone, when Sebastian Dolores and Seraphe Corniche were asleep, he had got up again and left the house, to gaze at the spot where the big white mill with the red roof had been-the mill which had been there in the days of the Baron of Beaugard, and to which time had only added size and adornment.
Then there were the tales handed down, and the records of the Church for she knows the true story of every man that has come to New France from first to last. So, because I have a taste for tales, and gave him some, he told me of the Baron of Beaugard, and that time he took the right of the seigneur, and the end of it all.
We are just what we are now, and as if there never had been a Baron of Beaugard. What is there against Gerard except that he is an actor, that he is English, and that he is a Protestant? Is there anything?" "Sacre, is it not enough? An actor, what is that to pretend to be someone else and not to be yourself!"
The child, the dreamer, the optimist, the egoist, and the man alive in Jean Jacques sprang into vigour again. It was as though the Cock of Beaugard had really summoned him to action, and the crowing had not been that of a barnyard bantam not a hundred feet away from him. Jean Jacques' head went up too. "Me I am what I always was, nothing can change me," he exclaimed defiantly.
'You will accept the roof and bed of Beaugard to-night, my man, he said, 'and come to me here at nine tomorrow morning. Garoche stared hard for an instant. 'Stay here! said Garoche, 'Falise and me stay here in the Manor, M'sieu' le Baron! 'Here, even here, Garoche; so good-night to you, said the Baron. Garoche turned towards the girl. 'Then come, Falise, he said, and reached out his hand.
If I find you ever again in Beaugard I will have you whipped from parish to parish. Here is money for you good gold coins. Take them, and go. "Garoche got still and cold as stone. He said in a low, harsh voice: 'M'sieu' le Baron, you are a common thief, a wolf, a snake. Such men as you come lower than Judas. As God has an eye to see, you shall pay all one day.
