Having made the mother of his child a pretty and sweet-tempered mulattress whom he met on a short trip to New Orleans, and whom he brought back to Arcola, he became deeply attached to the charming creature and to his son, so much the more so as, with a simple difference of complexion and of hair, the child was the image of him.
"I will come to see you, Celeste," replied Alix to the young mulattress, "I promise you." Maggie herself seemed moved, and in taking leave of Alix put two vigorous kisses on her cheeks. "And we hope, my dear Carlo, to find you established in your principality." "Amen!" responded the Italian.
