What could be the meaning of this meek acceptance of a theft so flagrant that the whole town was talking about it? What was Victor Dorn's "game"? He discovered the next day. The executive committee of the League worked all night; the League's printers and presses worked from six o'clock in the morning until ten.
At half-past ten Remsen City was flooded with a special edition of the New Day, given away by Leaguers and their wives and sons and daughters a monster special edition paid for with the last money in the League's small campaign chest. This special was a full account of the frauds that had been committed.
But a league's distance from Avignon a magnificent triumphal reception awaited her. Louis of Tarentum and all the cardinals present at the court had come out to meet her. Handsome youths and lovely girls, their heads crowned with flowers, went before her singing her praise.
They arrived at Angiers next day before dark, and were met at a league's distance from the gates by the governor of the castle, attended by young Prince Frederic Henry of Nassau; followed by a long train of nobles and mounted troops. Welcomed in this stately manner on behalf of the king, the envoys were escorted to the lodgings provided for them in the city.

I gave them a Louis, but my saint did not look at me. With a broken heart I went to the good countrywoman, who told me that M M had gone at day-break, bidding her to remind me of the convent grating.
"It is most likely the watch." I paled at the thought, for the watch was the League's, and Lucas by all signs the League's tool. It might go hard with us if captured. "Go through the house, M. le Comte," I cried. "Quick, if you love your life! I'll keep them at the alley's mouth as long as I can." Not waiting for his answer, I rushed down the passage.
"No, I have never been there, but I have associated a good deal with Venetians." A servant came and told me that the wheelwright had arrived, and that he would take four hours to mend my carriage, so I went downstairs. The man lived at a quarter of a league's distance, and by tying the carriage pole with ropes, I could drive to his place, and wait there for the carriage to be mended.
He was too busy with the consciousness that at last he was in a position to capitalize his information. He knew what nobody else did, outside of Henry and his wife, Mirabelle, Mr. Archer and probably Judge Barklay and if he flung himself into the League's campaign, what might he now accomplish? He looked at Mirabelle. Her eyes betrayed her admiration. Mr.
