It will do for once; but if we sojourn in these quarters some time yet, she must be educated and taught to say, 'If you please' and 'Thanks. Ah! ha! she has no idea what sort of man she is dealing with! Half past eight! If she is not here in five minutes I shall go to La Fauconnerie and raise a terrible uproar.
There was something so serious and urgent in Gerfaut's accent as he said these words, that the artist got up at once and hurriedly dressed himself. "What is the matter?" he asked, as he put on his dressing-gown, "you look as if the affairs of the nation rested upon you." "Put on your coat and boots," said Octave, "you must go to La Fauconnerie.
After the Baron and his sister had passed, he crossed the avenue and soon disappeared over the winding road on the other side of the bridge. A league below the castle of Bergenheim, the village of La Fauconnerie was situated, at the junction of several valleys the principal of which, by means of an unfrequented road, opened communications between Lorraine and upper Alsatia.

At these words, which probably referred to some letters, doubtless read without very much anger, since they were thus recalled, Gerfaut took courage.
