Boone, and had been in the woods about a month, where they had some stirring adventures, meeting an old hermit who has helped them, and making enemies of a half-breed guide, Jean LeBlanc, and a rascally ex-deputy Ranger, Anderson by name, who was supplanted by Nate Webster, a warm-hearted old Maine guide and a firm friend of the boys.
Accordingly, this same Quigg smooth-shaven, smirking, and hollow-eyed, with a diamond pin, half a yard of watch-chain, and a fancy shirt ex-village clerk with his accounts short, ex-deputy sheriff with his accounts of cruelty and blackmail long, and at present walking delegate of the Union was appointed a committee of one for that duty.
The ex-deputy alighted and then held out his hand to assist an old gentleman who was travelling with him. Prasville ran up to him and said, eagerly: "Vorenglade... I want to speak to you..." At the same moment, Daubrecq, who had managed to pass the barrier, appeared and exclaimed: "M. Vorenglade, I have had your letter. I am at your disposal."
Poynings was an experienced and capable soldier, who had been in command before Sluys in the recent campaign; and on his departure for Ireland Kildare went with him. Both the ex-Deputy and the Earl of Ormonde promised to render loyal service; but it was no very long time before Kildare was sent back to England under accusations of treason.
Or, if you absolutely insist on doing it, have the kindness first to consult the twenty-seven names on the list of which you have just robbed me and reflect, for a moment, on the name of the third person on it." "Oh? And what is the name of that third person?" "It is the name of a friend of yours." "What friend?" "Stanislas Vorenglade, the ex-deputy."
Prasville once more took his hat, coat and stick, went downstairs, stepped into a taxi and drove to Vorenglade's flat. Here he was told that the ex-deputy was expected home from London at six o'clock that evening. It was two o'clock in the afternoon. Prasville therefore had plenty of time to prepare his plan.
When questioned about the use of clubs in dispersing street crowds at the I. W. W. meetings he said: "I used my sap as a club and struck them and drove them away with it." "Why didn't you use your hands and push them out?" asked Cooley. "I didn't think we had a right to use our hands," said the big ex-deputy. "What do you mean by that?" said the surprised lawyer.
