"Michie Reetchie a gallant!" said Xavier. "An incurable," said Nick, "an amazingly clever rogue at device when there is a petticoat in it. Davy, do I do you justice?" Xavier roared again.

"Mon Dieu," said Xavier, "and who is to pay Michie Gratiot for his fur?

The river, she is full of things." "Yes, I know, Xavier, but you will teach me to steer." "Volontiers, Michie, as we go now. But there come a time when I, even I, who am twenty year on her, do not know whether it is right or left. Ze rock he vair' hard. Ze snag, he grip you like dat," and Xavier twined his strong arms around Nick until he was helpless. "Ze bar he hol' you by ze leg.
"I am busy," he said, in the Creole-negro patois, "but has anybody has anything happened to to anybody in Madame Brouillard's house?" "Yes," the messenger feared that "ce Michié qui poté soulié jaune that gentleman who wears yellow shoes is ill. Madame Brouillard is hurrying to and fro and crying." "Very loud?" "No, silently; yet as though her heart were breaking."
"For shame, Xavier," cried Nick; "and you are balked by such things?" Xavier thought this an exceedingly good joke, and he took his pipe out of his mouth to laugh the better. "Me? Mais non, Michie. And yet ze Alcalde, he mek me afraid. Once he put me in ze calaboose when I tried to climb ze balcon'." Nick roared.
"Madame," he said, "I have brought you from St. Louis with Michie Gratiot's compliments two young American gentlemen, who are travelling to amuse themselves." The lady rose and beamed upon us.

Three thousand!
Do that, Madame Brouillard, as quickly as you can. I will wait here." But the kneeling figure hesitated, with intense distress in her upturned face: "What are you going to do, Michié Ducour?" "We are going to make you sole legatee." "I do not want it! How are you going to do it? How?" "In a way which he knows about and approves." Attalie hid her shapely forehead again on the dead hand.
"O Michié Ducour!" the trembling woman whispered, "those three witnesses will never do. I am in debt to every one of them!" "Madame Brouillard, the one you owe the most to will be the best witness.
