But before he reached it, Chatelard had jerked open the lever, loosened the brake, and was passing the church at half speed. "Hey, there, quick!" called the sheriff. "He's got away!" But Mr. Hand had already thought what was best to be done. "Come on, here's another machine. We'll chase him!" he cried, as he went for the white motorcar, standing farther back under the trees.
Accordingly, one evening he got into Mary Stuart's room, and hid himself under the bed; but at the moment when the queen was beginning to undress, a little dog she had began to yelp so loudly that her women came running at his barking, and, led by this indication, perceived Chatelard.
"He is the paid spy of the Duke Stephen, my cousin. He does all his dirty work." Mélanie laughed a bit nervously as she added, turning to Chatelard: "But you are the last man I expected to see here. I suppose you are come from my excellent cousin to find me, eh? Is that the case?" Chatelard's eyes, resting on her, burned with hate. "Yes, your Highness.
"Alas! he was a noble, brave, and handsome young man, with a faithful heart and a hot head, who would defend me to-day, if I had defended him then; but his boldness seemed to me rashness, and his fault a crime. What was to be done? I did not love him. Poor Chatelard! I was very cruel to him." "But you did not prosecute him, it was your brother; you did not condemn him, the judges did."
But it happened that about the time when Chatelard was most in love with the queen she was obliged to leave France, as we have said.
But before the words were fairly out of her mouth, Agatha's voice had cut in: "Mr. Van Camp, that is he! That is he! The man on the Jeanne D'Arc!" "We thought as much," answered Chamberlain. "That's why he is here." "We only wanted your confirmation of his identity," said the man who had been standing by the window, as he came forward. "Monsieur Chatelard, you are to come with me.
We are but a hundred of poor châlets." "An auberge, then a cabaret anything?" "Les Trois Chèvres. It is not for such as you." "Is it, then, that I must toil onwards to Châtelard?" "Monsieur does not know? The Hôtel Royal was burned to the walls six months since." "It follows that I must lie in the fields." Madame hesitates, ponders, and makes up her mind.
Among the lords who had followed Mary Stuart to Scotland was, as we have mentioned, a young nobleman named Chatelard, a true type of the nobility of that time, a nephew of Bayard on his mother's side, a poet and a knight, talented and courageous, and attached to Marshal Damville, of whose household he formed one.
One moment he prayed that the words of Chatelard might be true, and that she had never been aboard the yacht; the next moment he prayed he might find her behind the next closed door. As James searched below deck, a house palatial disclosed itself, even in the dim light of the little lanterns.
You thought Miss Redmond was the princess masquerading as an opera singer." "Her Highness has always been admired as a singer!" cut in Chatelard. "No doubt! And even you were deceived!" Aleck laughed in derision. "But when you take so serious a step as an abduction, my dear man, be sure you get hold of the right victim."
