On Thursday the fight at Buzenval began with a brilliant success; in the middle of the day his fiancee still had news of him, brought by a servant. Night fell. The battle was hottest in a wood adjoining the park of Buzenval. Regnault and his painter-comrade Clairin were side by side. Suddenly the retreat was sounded, and the same instant Clairin missed his friend.
"You cannot leave before ten o'clock, as the station is a long way from here, and in such weather it will take Madame two hours to walk there." I was confounded, and looked for the young gentleman with the umbrella, which I could have used as walking-stick, as neither Clairin nor Godard had one.
When she married my brother I don't suppose she took him for a member of a societe de bonnes oeuvres. I don't say we're right; who IS right? But we are as history has made us, and if any one's to change it had better be our charming, but not accommodating, friend." Again Madame Clairin paused, again she opened and closed her great modern fan, which clattered like the screen of a shop-window.
But just as I was accusing him of going away and leaving us, he jumped lightly out of a vehicle which I had not heard drive up. "There!" said he. "There is a carriage for you and these gentlemen, and another for the body of the balloon." "Ma foi! You have saved us," said Clairin, clasping his hand, "for it appears the roads are in a very bad state."
She's tallored him for his long division, an' she's tallered him for that blemish on Miss Phoebe's cheek, an' she's tallered him for clairin' of his th'oat.
"Where are we?" thundered Georges Clairin in his most formidable tones. "At in in ille!" shouted the station-master, with his hand curved round his mouth. "Where are we?" cried I in my most crystalline accents. "At in in ille!" answered the station-master and his porters. It was impossible to get to know anything. We had to lower the balloon.
I want to arrange things; to see my brother free to do as he chooses; to see his wife contented. Do you understand me?" "Very well, I think," the young man said. "You're the most immoral person I've lately had the privilege of conversing with." Madame Clairin took it calmly. "Possibly. When was ever a great peacemaker not immoral?" "Ah no," Longmore protested.
There was little talk, scarcely a convivial sound save the occasional expressive appreciative "M-m-m!" of Madame Clairin over the succulence of some dish. Twice this lady saw her brother's eyes, fixed on her own over his wineglass, put to her a question she knew she should have to irritate him later on by not being able to answer.
