There are French names with exclamation points, a sign of wrath. The wall was freshly whitewashed in 1849. The nations insulted each other there. It was at the door of this chapel that the corpse was picked up which held an axe in its hand; this corpse was Sub-Lieutenant Legros. On emerging from the chapel, a well is visible on the left. There are two in this courtyard.
Except for that little regret that you know of as regards Legros and and Madelon, I am content that life should come to an end it is not too delightful in any case, and those that I cared for most did their best to spoil mine for me.
For Edward Manisty was one of those men of note whose portraits the world likes to paint: and this 'Olympian head' of his was well known in many a French and English studio, through a fine drawing of it made by Legros when Manisty was still a youth at Oxford. 'Begun by David and finished by Rembrandt': so a young French painter had once described Edward Manisty.
"If this cursed accident had happened but one day sooner or later, I could have left her a fortune but a superb fortune; only one day sooner I had it two days ago or to-morrow I should have had my revenge last night of that scélérat that devil that Legros, and won back the money he cheated me of, he he of all men, a mere beginner, a smatterer ah! if I had been the man I once was, it would have been a different account to settle "
Bompard, Desgas, Jeanniot, Legros were at his heels, but he tore open the door, bounded across the threshold, and slammed it to with such a vigorous bang that those on the other side were brought to a momentary halt. That moment meant life and liberty to Blakeney; already he had crossed the antichambre.
"And after that period the names that have been handed down to us deserve nothing but execration. Thomas Boudin, Legros, Jean de Dieu, Berruer, Tuby, Simon Mazières these were the men that dared to carry on the work begun by Soulas!
