Now, Julot knows our tastes, our various fancies, and he undertakes ..." "Capital! Capital!" He had been registered under the names of Jean Marie Mathieu Valot, but he was never called anything but Mademoiselle. He was the idiot of the district, but not one of those wretched, ragged idiots who live on public charity.
M. de Narbonne, on his return from his hasty journey, presented a most encouraging report to the Assembly, of the state of the fortified towns. He praised every one. He presented to the country the young Mathieu de Montmorency, one of the most illustrious names of France, and whose character was even more noble than his name, as the representative of the aristocracy devoting itself to liberty.
That day Madame Angelin returned to Janville with Mathieu. They found themselves alone in the railway carriage, and all at once, without any apparent cause, tears started from the young woman's eyes. At this she apologized, and murmured as if in a dream: "To have a child, to rear him, and then lose him ah! certainly one's grief must then be poignant.
You've chosen your day well. Be off with you, be off with you, I say, if you don't want me to do something dreadful!" He raised his fists, quite maddened as he was by the presence of Mathieu at that moment when his whole life was wrecked.
The subject of children was thus started, and when Mathieu, laughing, observed that they, the Moranges, had but one child, the cashier protested that it was unfair to compare him with M. Beauchene, who was such a wealthy man.
Accustomed as Mathieu was to these attacks, which left him perfectly serene, he went on laughing, without even giving a reply, when a workman abruptly entered the room one who was currently called "old Moineaud," though he was scarcely three-and-forty years of age.
"Here is a letter for Madame Mathieu. I must give it into her own hands," answered the man. "She does not live here: inquire opposite," said Rudolph. "Thank you, friend; they told me it was the door to the left; I am mistaken." Rudolph did not know the name of the diamond broker; he had therefore no motive to interest himself about the woman to whom the rogue came as a messenger.
If ever you should come to Rougemont, just ask after Sophie Couteau there. Folks will tell you that I'm a hard-working woman, and don't owe a copper to a soul!" Mathieu could not help looking at her to see how unblushingly she thus praised herself.
"I share your opinion," said Mathieu, laughing in his turn. "At all events, if it is not madness it is extravagance, as we admit, my wife and I, when we are alone. And we certainly don't think that all people ought to have such large families as ours.
"In a short conversation which I have had with Frederic Larsan, during the adjournment," declared the advocate, "he has made me understand that the death of the keeper may have been brought about otherwise than by the hand of Mathieu. It will be interesting to hear Frederic Larsan's theory." Frederic Larsan was brought in. His explanation was quite clear.
