He is named to give him his titles in full 'Honnête homme Mauger Lessarmentrer, clerc non marier, appariteur de la cour archiepiscopalle de Rouen. The name of the chief torturer of the good city of Rouen, Mauger, has a gruesome ring about it it reminds one of the headsman in Harrison Ainsworth's novel of the Tower of London.
But I won't fight no more fer money partly 'cause I don't need it partly 'cause I'm fightin' fer myself. I got a little left in my britches pocket, but if I hadn't, my ol' Marier wouldn't let me go hungry." In April the two friends set out afoot for the lower end of the Highlands. On the river they hired a Dutch farmer to take them on to Albany in his sloop.
I wanted to live higher So I married Marier, Out of the frying pan into the bloomin' fire. And he meant every word of it. In our new positions in the Grouse Spots the orders were to patrol the open ground between at least four times a night. That first night there was one more patrol necessary before daylight. Tired as I was, I volunteered for it.
"On air," he answered, "for we saw you in New Orleans yesterday." "And why?" "Need you ask, Mademoiselle?" said the rogue, and then, with more effrontery than ever, he began to sing: "'Je voudrais bien me marier, Je voudrais bien me marier, Mais j'ai grand' peur de me tromper." She rose, her sewing falling to the ground, and took a few startled steps towards us.
Ye'll find plenty o' use fer 'em arter a while, 'n' 'twont be long, nuther. I know what I'm talkin' 'bout; I've been thar!" This conversation took place a day or two before Si bade farewell to his mother and sister Marier and pretty Annabel and left the peaceful precincts of Posey County to march away with the 200th Ind. for that awful place vaguely designated as "the front!"
"He's mebbe all right, but he's homely as Aunt Marier comin' through the thrashin'-machine," decided the teamster. The carpenter added: "He's so all-fired awkward he can't keep step with hisself." "Wal, he ain't so rank in his judgment as some I could indicate," drawled Jim, prepared to defend both pup and foundling to the last extent.
"If there ain't more'n one letter for me," said Si softly to himself, "I hope it'll be from Annabel; but, of course, I'd like to hear from Ma and sister Marier, too!"
If I'm anything, I'm a Catholic, my dear and now take all these things and put them away. I think I shall never marier with anyone in this world. I must go, I suppose. Antoine will drive, and I shall go alone."
There was dead silence in the room, save for the ticking of a clock which stood in a dark corner out of reach of the rays of the lamp. No man looked at any of his fellows. They stared fixedly at the ceil-ing, the table, or the walls of the room. After about ten minutes, Felix Marier rose, crossed the room, and peered at the face of the clock. He went to the door and looked down the lane.
What was it the charming Russian girl Bashkirtseff wrote on this very subject? 'Me marier et' ?" "I can tell you!" exclaimed Cicely "It was the one sentence in the whole book that made all the men mad, because it showed such utter contempt for them! 'Me marier et avoir des enfants? Mais chaque blanchisseuse peut en faire autant! Je veux la gloire! Oh, how I agree with her!
