"I have relations there," said she, "who will be glad to see me, and I hope that my husband will let me return to him. I am the Prodigal Son, and I hope to find in him the forgiving father." I told her I would do my utmost to send her home in safety and comfort. Towards the middle of December I left Dresden with Madame Blasin.
"Dress yourself," said I to her, "and tell the French ambassador the whole story. Tell him that you are a milliner, Blasin by name, and that all you want is to go from here to Strasburg, and from there to Montpellier." While she was dressing I ordered a carriage and a servant to be in attendance.
I followed her advice, and the good man asked me if I had ever known a young lace seller of the name of Mdlle. Blasin, of Montpellier. "Yes, I remember her well enough a delightful and most respectable young woman; but I did not know she came from Montpellier. She was very pretty and very sensible, and I expect she did a good business.

At eight o'clock in the evening the landlord came up and said very politely that he had been ordered by the police to give the lady a room at some distance from mine, and that he was obliged to obey. "I am quite ready to change my room," said Madame Blasin, with a smile. "Is the lady to sup alone?" I asked. "I have received no instructions on that point."
My old friend wrote me a note, telling me that she had seen me speaking to her husband in his shop. She begged me to come again at a certain time, and to tell her husband that I had known her under the name of Mdlle. Blasin in England, Spa, Leipzig, and Vienna, as a seller of lace. She ended her note with these words: "I have no doubt that my husband will finally introduce you to me as his wife."
