Mgr. de Laval was cruelly affected by it, but, accustomed to adore in everything the designs of God, he seized the occasion to invoke Him with more fervour; he immediately ordered in his seminary public prayers to implore the mercy of the Most High. M. de Frontenac, who was about to begin his second administration, learned the sinister news on his arrival at Quebec on October 15th.
At that time there was in France a terrible monster, known as Giles de Laval, whose emissaries were ever on the alert for such victims. It was this cruel man who suggested to Perrault his world-renowned story of Barbe-bleu, the Blue-Beard that Dan there knows all about.
At the time of her second return to Montreal, with the six new subjects that M. de Laval received in France, she found it necessary to secure the services of an honest, robust man, who would be willing to work for them, when necessary, during their travels.
"Nothing that had better go any further," said Mrs. Laval. "Nothing of any consequence, mother." "It is of no consequence," said Judy, "because David and Norton made it up." "And Judy didn't," said Norton. "Not I; it was your affair," said the young lady. "My connections are not given to saving." "That is very true indeed!" exclaimed Mrs.

You want to know what is up a chimney, you jump up the chimney. You want to know the reason of a thing, and you blurt out a question.
Accordingly, never was prelate better obeyed or better seconded than Mgr. de Laval, because, far from having that professional jealousy which desires to do everything itself, which dreads merit and enjoys only despotism, never did prelate evince more appreciative confidence in his inferiors, or seek more earnestly to give zeal and talent their dues, or have less desire to command, or did, in fact, command less."
He was a kind of belated Byron, who might have been cured of his romantic tastes by the wounds and contact of reality. She especially recalled a visit in Guy's company to José at an apartment that the duke had furnished in Rue de Laval.
Frederic's daughter Charlotte married in France Nicholas, Count of Laval, governor and admiral of Brittany; a daughter was born of this marriage, Anne de Laval, who married Francois de la Trimauille. Through her those rights were transmitted to the house of La Trimouille which were used later on as a claim upon the kingdom of the Two Sicilies.
