"Even you have moments when the brain goes to sleep and and the body wakes up. Eh, Emilio? Isn't it true?" "My dear Doro, when have I claimed to be unlike other men?" "No, no!

Vere laughed, and suddenly made her eyes look very round, and staring, and impudent. "He's like that, Gaspare," she said. "Vere!" said her mother. Then she added to Gaspare: "The Marchese is a friend of Don Emilio's. Ah! and here is a letter from Don Emilio." It was lying beside the Marchese's card with some other letters.
When he caught sight of Artois on the steps behind Hermione and Vere, however, he could not repress an exclamation of "Emilio!" He took Hermione's and Vere's hands, bowed over them and kissed them.

Villa was already facing the firing squad, and the officer in charge had given the command to load, when President Madero's brother, Emilio, who was serving on Huerta's staff in an advisory capacity, put a stop to the execution by taking Villa under his personal protection.
