There you found the choicest legal and political gossips, with the best the market afforded of meat and drink. Frowenfeld found a considerable number of persons there. He had to move about among them to some extent, to make sure he was not overlooking the object of his search.
She was heavily veiled; but the sparkle of her eyes, which no multiplication of veils could quite extinguish, her symmetrical and well-fitted figure, just escaping smallness, her grace of movement, and a soft, joyous voice, had several days before led Frowenfeld to the confident conclusion that she was young and beautiful.
He was going on to give Honoré Grandissime's message, but was interrupted. "My young friend," rumbled the old man in his deepest key, smiling emotionally and holding and solemning continuing to shake Joseph's hand, "I am sure you are. You ought to thank God that you have my acquaintance." Frowenfeld colored to the temples. "I must acknowledge " he began.
"That is Agricola," whispered Aurora, with lifted head and eyes dilated and askance, as one deep-chested voice roared above all others. Agricola stormed. "Uncle," Aurora by and by heard Honoré say, "shall I leave my own counting-room?" At that moment Joseph Frowenfeld entered, pausing with one hand on the outer rail.
But it was after he had closed his shop, and in his back room sat pondering the unusual experiences of the evening, that it began to be, in a higher degree, a night of events to most of those persons who had a part in its earlier incidents. That Honoré Grandissime whom Frowenfeld had only this day learned to know as the Honoré Grandissime and the young governor-general were closeted together.
"Sir," exclaimed Frowenfeld, taking a step backward, "pardon me if I offend you; that mixture of blood which draws upon you the scorn of this community is to me nothing nothing! And every invidious distinction made against you on that account I despise!
They leaped into it. A human figure swerved from the onset of the Creole and ran toward the bow of the boat, and in an instant more would have been in the river. "Stop!" said Frowenfeld, seizing the unresisting f.m.c. firmly by the collar. Honoré Grandissime smiled, partly at the apothecary's brief speech, but much more at his success. "Let him go, Mr. Frowenfeld," he said, as he came near.
The immigrant glanced at Citizen Fusilier, expecting to see the greeting returned with great haughtiness; instead of which that person uncovered his leonine head, and, with a solemn sweep of his cocked hat, bowed half his length. Nay, he more than bowed, he bowed down so that the action hurt Frowenfeld from head to foot.
A plaster or two made everything even in a short time, except in the driver's case for the driver died. The woman whom Bras-Coupé had thrown over his head lived to sell calas to Joseph Frowenfeld. Don José, young and austere, knew nothing about agriculture and cared as much about human nature.
"My-de'-seh," Honoré had once on a time said to Frowenfeld, meaning that to prevail in conversational debate one should never follow up a faltering opponent, "you mus' crack the egg, not smash it!"
