The major affirmed that he had seen me not only looking on at the defeat of his posse, but holding my farmers in check not to hasten to their assistance. He alleged that I had lent racehorses to you and your accomplice, for your continued flight. This Polander " "You can say Frenchman, now," returned Madame Clemenceau; "he is one, and my cousin.

Stepping aside, Antonino discovered Madame Clemenceau, who smiled softly. "Oh, madame!" ejaculated Antonino, at the height of astonishment, not unmixed with gladness. "I beg your pardon; I am very sorry I mean glad that is, I was not aware if I had had any idea you were home " "You could not have known," she answered in a gentle voice.
