At the very time that Cavalier was holding the conference with the royalist general at the Bridge of the Avène, Roland and Joany, with a body of horse and foot, waylaid the Count de Tournou at the plateau of Font-morte the place where Seguier, the first Camisard leader, had been defeated and captured and suddenly fell upon the Royalists, putting them to flight.
Making no bones about it, being very young and very badly hurt, Martin cried too, and their tears washed the bridge away and the barriers and misunderstandings and criss-crosses that had sprung up between them during all those adolescent months. "Martin, Martin, it was all my fault." "No, it wasn't, Joany. It was mine. I wasn't merely your pal, ever.
The rugged mountain district of the Lozère, in which the Tarn, the Ceze, and the Alais branch of the Gardon have their origin, was placed under the command of Joany.
Castanet and Salomon were broken alive on the wheel on the Peyrou at Montpellier, and Catinat, Ravanel, with several others, were burnt alive on the Place de la Beaucaire at Nismes. The last to perish were Abraham and Joany.
He would have pawned his life at that moment for the taste of her lips. She stood at the bottom of the stairs and held out her hand. "Good night, old boy," she said. And he took it and hurt it.
