About the fifteenth of August begins the week of races at Déauville, the principal event of the Norman circuit, bringing together not unfrequently as many as a hundred and sixty horses, and ranking, in fact, as third in importance in all France, the meetings at Longchamps and Chantilly alone taking precedence of it.
On Wednesday morning I received a reply from Maurice at Deauville he hastened to answer he said He had heard of Miss Sharp through a man in the American Red Cross, where Miss Sharp had been employed.
It is to the duc de Morny that Déauville owes the existence of its "hippodrome," but the choice of this bit of sandy beach, that seemed to have been thrown up and abandoned by the sea like a waif, cannot be called a happy one.
"Good-bye, Suzette!" and I bent down and kissed her forehead "You have been the jolliest little pal possible and remember that I have appreciated it, and you will always have a real friend in me!" She burst into tears once more real tears . "Je t'aime bien!" she whispered "I shall go to Deauville Va!"
"Very unfortunate for her," Maurice said "because she had nearly secured a roving English peer who had enjoyed 'cushy' jobs during the war, and had been recruiting from the fatigues of red-taping at Deauville and now, with this whisper of a spoiled skin, he had transferred his attentions to Coralie and there was trouble among the graces!"
They had taken a villa at Deauville, and in the morning papers Undine followed the chronicle of Hubert's polo scores and of the Countess Hubert's racing toilets. The days crawled on with a benumbing sameness.
I dare say you could have managed better than I do," replied Giselle, with a sad smile, but without a spark of jealousy. "Oh, you are in high favor. He gave up this week the races at Deauville, the great race week from which he has never before been absent, since our marriage. But you see my ambition has become limited; I am satisfied if he lets me alone."
I do not know any other that would have done anything like the work." At the same time that this race was being held the French had a competition from Paris to Deauville, a distance of about 160 miles. When compared with the time and distance covered by Mr.
Smithson, of Park Lane, and Rood Hall, near Henley, and Formosa, Cowes, and Le Bouge, Deauville, and a good many other places too numerous to mention, was reputed to be one of the richest commoners in England. He was a man of that uncertain period of life which enemies call middle age, and friends call youth.
The only way to keep off the impossibles was to form a bodyguard of the possibles. The seclusion of the honeymoon paradise had to be opened up for once in a way. Of course, there was much talk about the East; but it was a different point of view, from that of the enthusiasts of Deauville and the Riviera.
