"Yet the most important fact in the political history of recent years is the possibility, I should say the necessity, to introduce unity of views in the government of the republic. These are ideas which you, my dear Garin, have expressed with rare eloquence." M. Berthier-d'Eyzelles kept silence. Senator Loyer rolled crumbs with his fingers.
I see them from the inside now, and their aspect is changed. And, then, I am free no longer." He sighed: "Ah, if the people only knew the little that we can do when we are powerful!" He told her his impressions. Berthier was reserved. The others were impenetrable. Loyer alone was excessively authoritative. She listened to him without attention and without impatience.
No one could ever read madame's writing, though it made her temper very bad to tell her so. Could he have Madame Cervin's address? Certainly. She wrote it out for him. As to his old room? no, he could not go back to it. Monsieur Dubois had lately come back, with some money apparently, for he had paid his loyer just as the landlord was going to turn him out. But he was not at home.
Madame Martin had at her right Garain the Deputy, formerly Chancellor, also President of the Council, and at her left Senator Loyer. At Count Martin-Belleme's right was Monsieur Berthier-d'Eyzelles. It was an intimate and serious business gathering. In conformity with Montessuy's prediction, the Cabinet had fallen four days before.
"We shall have to compose the declaration," said Count Martin. "I have thought of it. For my department I have found, I think, a fine formula." Loyer shrugged his shoulders. "My dear Martin, we have nothing essential to change in the declaration of the preceding Cabinet; the situation is unchanged." He struck his forehead with his hand. "Oh, I had forgotten.
And she was pointing disdainfully to a grinning young man, with a gardenia in his button-hole, who stood near them. Loyer motioned to the General that he wished to speak to him, and, pushing him against the bar, said: "I have the pleasure to announce to you that you have been appointed Minister of War." Lariviere, distrustful, said nothing.
Loyer affirms that "the King of Sain, on the least pretence, sells his subjects for European goods. He is so tyrannically severe, that he makes a whole village responsible for the fault of one inhabitant; and on the least offence sells them all for slaves."
The Parliament of Grenada, in one or two cases, decided in favour of the tenant, and against the landlord of houses where spectres racketed. Le Loyer now reports the pleadings in a famous case, of which he does not give the date. Incidentally, however, we learn that it can hardly have been earlier than 1550. The cause was heard, on appeal, before the Parlement de Paris.
In another well-known case, before the Parlement de Bretagne, the ghost of a man who had mysteriously vanished, guided his brother to the spot where his wife and her paramour had buried him, after murdering him. Le Loyer does not give the date of this trial. The wife was strangled, and her body was burned.
The chief merchants were Charles Basire, Jacques Loyer de Latour, Claude Charron, Jean Maheut, Eustache Lambert, Bertrand Chesnay de la Garenne, Guillaume Feniou. Charles Aubert de la Chesnaye, the stalwart Quebec trader of the day, was then in France. In the neighbourhood of Quebec were a few settlements.
