Pauline's warning was well-timed, for the constables made a descent upon Caillaud's lodgings as soon as they got him into jail, and thence proceeded to Coleman's. They insisted on a search, and Mrs. Carter gave them a bit of her mind, for they went into every room of the house, and even into Mrs. Coleman's bedroom. "I'll tell you what it is, Mr.
He reflected for a little while, and then determined to consult Caillaud and Coleman, who were his informal Cabinet. He had no difficulty in finding Coleman, but the Caillauds were not at home, and it was agreed that postponement could do no harm. A message was therefore left at Caillaud's house, and one was sent to every one of the members, but two or three could not be discovered. Meanwhile Mr.
Next week Zachariah found it necessary to consult with Caillaud again. The Major was to be there. The intended meeting was announced to Mrs. Coleman by her husband at breakfast on the day before, and he informed her that he should probably be late, and that no supper need be kept for him. "Why do you never meet here, Zachariah? Why must it always be at Caillaud's?"

The original is in the French Archives, and Caillaud's signature shows that he was still suffering from his wound. Sinfray we shall come across again.

The blind was drawn down, but not closely, and she could see inside.
She knows all his affairs, and is very useful to him." "So it seems. She must be VERY useful. Well, if it must be so, and it is on business, invite her too." "I think still it will be better at Caillaud's; there more room. There would be five of us." "How do you make five?" "There is the Major. And why, by the way, do you object to Caillaud and Pauline more than the Major? He is not converted."
The secretary of this very sub-committee, who was also treasurer, was one of the causes of the failure of the enterprise, for when the march began neither he nor the funds with which he had been entrusted could be found. After the club meetings in the evening there was often an adjournment to Caillaud's lodgings, where the Major, Zachariah, Caillaud, and Pauline sat up till close upon midnight.
He took down the Cook's Voyages; but after about ten minutes he could not go on and he put it back in its place. "Caillaud's trial is to take place next week," he observed after a long pause. "Horrible man!" she exclaimed, with a sudden increase of energy. "I understand that it was in defending him Major Maitland lost his life." "My dear, you are quite wrong.
Coleman wondered whether, after all, he would repent; but the evening came and she waited and waited in vain. The poor woman for hours and hours had thought one thought and one thought only, until at last she could bear it no longer. At about eight o'clock she rose, put on her cloak, and went out of doors. She made straight for Caillaud's house.
