"Your grandfather, the Honorable Chateauguay, this. This is his Lady, your grandmother. Here is her father, a LeGardeur de Repentigny. There is the old Marshal in armor. Here is Louise d'Argentenaye, of the time of Henry IV., who married a Montcalm. Here is the Count d'Argentenaye in armor." And thus he took me about on a singular round, and informed me concerning the whole gallery.
The Vicomte D'Haberville, a French d'Argentenaye, took us to a reception not too proud of us I daresay, for the gloss of his shoes and the magnificence of his cravat outshone us as the sleek skin of a race-horse does a country filly. Especially did he eye Quinet a little coldly, so that I could scarcely persuade the proud fellow to come.
A tablet among those of his fathers, facing the Seigniorial pew, recorded, for a little, the name of the last d'Argentenaye; but now the proud Curé at length has had his will, and instead of its venerable house of God, Dormillière wears in its centre a pretentious nondescript structure of cut-stone.
"When yellow-locked and crystal-eyed, I dreamed green woods among * O, then the earth was young" When Chrysler went up to his bedchamber he found the following on a table between two candles: Narrative of Chamilly d'Argentenaye Haviland.
Nôtre Dame de Paris, O vast monument of French art, recorder of chivalric ages, all the generations have had recourse to thine aisles and the heart of Paris beats within thee as the hearts of Quinet and this d'Argentenaye beat under the ribs of their human breasts. Paris knew and loved us.
De Rheims stood with Mde. Fée, the aunt of Mile. Sylphe, near the musicians, receiving and surveying her subjects, a woman of majestic presence. Nodding dismissal to the fierce moustache, she acknowledged my deep bow with a slight but gracious inclination. "Madame Fée, permit me to introduce Monsieur Chamilly Haviland, a D'Argentenaye of Dormillière, and the last.
"Yes," he replied with animation, "The 'HIS MAJESTY' there is the Grand Monarque himself! De Frontenac is the Great Count, and that Jean Chamilly D'Argentenaye, cadet of the Chamillys of Rouen, is our first predecessor on these lands." Taking a large genealogical tree out of the box, and spreading it on the table, he showed me my descent.
