When Hadria's parents visited the Red House, Miss Temperley was asked to meet them, by special request. Henriette employed tact on a grand scale, and achieved results in proportion. She was sorry that dear Hadria did not more quickly recover her strength. Her health was not what it ought to be. Mrs. Fullerton sighed. She was ready to play into Miss Temperley's hands on every occasion.
These memoirs, which were finished ten years ago, have met with the approbation of some persons; and my son may, perhaps, think proper to print them after my decease. When Madame Campan wrote these lines, she did not anticipate that the death of her son would precede her own. JEANNE LOUISE HENRIETTE GENET was born in Paris on the 6th of October, 1752.
The sheets were dusty, stained with age, blurred by damp, but one bore the name "Henriette" written in the corner in a large, defiant hand. Joining the fragments, they found it was an arrangement in manuscript of Poe's ballad, "Annabel Lee."
Henriette was also hearing arguments from her father, who by this time had had time to think things over, and had come to the conclusion that the doctor was right. He had noted his son-in-law's patience and penitence, and had also made sure that in spite of everything Henriette still loved him.
That was my last voyage, for Henriette was waiting for me at home, and I had promised her that after we had gone to church together I would go no more to distant countries, but would settle down here as a fisherman." "That was a narrow escape indeed, Pierre," Harry said as he worked away with the tar brush.
All parties conspired to promote a marriage between the young Henriette, only daughter of Madame Lechantre, and this protege of the ci-devants. Priests, nobles, creditors, each with a different interest, loyal in some, selfish in others, blind for the most part, all united in furthering the union of Bernard Bryond des Tours-Minieres with Henriette Lechantre.
Henriette started as if awaking from an evil dream, and, the thought of her brother flowing in again upon her mind, once more became a supplicant. "Can you do nothing for me? won't you assist me to get to Paris?" With his former air of unconcern Otto again raised his eyes to the horizon, smiling vaguely. "What would be the use? since to-morrow morning the city will be a pile of ruins!"
They are on the lookout for someone of whom to make an example." "Yes, I have had you in mind all along," Henriette hesitatingly replied. "I thought you might be willing to assist me with your advice, perhaps with something more substantial " The young woman laughed merrily. "You little goose, I'll have your uncle released inside three days.
"Mademoiselle wants a room or is it something for Madame?" said the man, perplexed at this strange little visitor, who was wholly out of the range of his experience. "No, no, it is mine," said Madelon; "if I might leave it here " The waiter set down the tray he was holding, and left the room followed by Madelon. "Mademoiselle Henriette!" he cried.
What's-his-name, your friend's old school-master, the Republican poet, calls it 'the cynosure of neighbouring eyes. Don't think me vain, ma mie. I am an old woman now, and I hate my looking-glass ever since it has shown me my first wrinkle; but in those days I had almost as many admirers as Madame Henriette, or the Princess Palatine, or the fair-haired Duchess. I was called la belle Anglaise."
