"It's the young Seigneur! the young Seigneur!" spread among the villagers, they welcomed, they addressed us, the kind spirit of French Canadians took us to itself, and I was drawn to my people, as I had not been even during the conversation of the delightful Madame Fauteux.
She had in her young way, the dignity of Madame de Rheims; all the gracefulness of the Southern girl with the pretty eyes; beauty as striking, though not the same as that girl's sister; the gaiety of Chinic; and now I was to find that she was apparently as cultured as Mde. Fauteux.
Mde. De Rheims now introduced me to two people simultaneously Sir Georges Mondelet, Chief-Justice, and the ruddy lady, Mde. Fauteux of Quebec.
Fauteux I offered my arm, and conducted her into the large conservatory opening off the parlors, where we walked. "Is it not a great privilege, Monsieur, to be an Englishman?" she began with polite banter. "You are the conquerors, the millionaires; yours are the palaces, and the high and honorable places! But you, Monsieur, you are not too proud to patronize our little receptions."
