Satisfied on this point, Chupin, pushed his investigations farther. "And do you know this old gentleman who is with your mamma in the other room?" "Oh, yes! that's Mouchon." "And who's Mouchon?" "He's the gentleman who owns that beautiful garden at the corner of the Rue Riquet, where there are such splendid grapes. I'm going with him to get some." "Does he often come to see you?" "Every evening.
I have often thought of this answer. And believe me, Mouchon, I have not yet met the prince who is worthy to take off your boots and wash your humble feet. With his forceps the doctor lays hold carefully of a mass of bloody dressings, and draws them gently out of a gaping wound in the abdomen.
The general will get sick of living among thieves. Did you know that that Shopman called me a thief, me! son of the stanchest and most incorruptible of republicans; me! the son in law of Mouchon, that famous representative of the people, who died without leaving me enough to bury him?"

"Well, if I have, they don't really belong to me."
And, turning toward the open door, she called, "M. Mouchon! M. Mouchon! It's from him it's from my husband; from Paul. Come, come!" A bald-headed, corpulent man, who looked some fifty years of age, now timidly emerged from the room behind the shop with a cap in his hand. "Ah, well! my dear child," he said, in an oily voice, "what was I telling you just now?
