Joseph, or, as we would say now, in Congo Square, from three pistols Agricola's, 'Polyte's, and the weapon of an ill-defined, retreating figure answering the description of the person who had stabbed Agricola the preceding February. "And yet," said 'Polyte, "I would have sworn that it was Palmyre doing this work." Through Raoul these events came to the ear of Frowenfield.
Blanche gave her five hundred francs. "Either her humility is a mask," she thought, "or her husband has told her nothing." Five days later Polyte Chupin presented himself. They needed three hundred francs more before they could commence business, and he came on behalf of his mother to entreat the kind lady to advance them.
"'Sieur Frowenfel', excuse me I take dat lett' to 'Polyte for you if you want." There are times when mere shopkeeping any peaceful routine is torture. But the apothecary felt so himself; he declined his assistant's offer and went out toward the Veau-qui-tête.
"Monsieur," he added, turning in his most irresistible manner to Monsieur Gratiot, "if I have delayed the departure of your boat, I am exceedingly sorry. But I appeal to you if I have not the best of excuses." And he bowed to Suzanne, who stood beside him coyly, looking down. As for 'Polyte and Gaspard, they were quite breathless between rage and astonishment. But Colonel Chouteau began to laugh.
And the brigadier added: "Polyte has been sleeping with her for three weeks, for the thief has no place of his own to go to!" The gendarme make a little joke: "He takes the shepherd's blankets."

And then, having been to the mayor's office and to church, she now lived in the house which her man had bought, while he continued to tend his flocks, day and night, on the plains. And the brigadier added: "Polyte has been sleeping there for three weeks, for the thief has no place of his own to go to!" The gendarme made a little joke: "He takes the shepherd's blankets."
"Justice," said he, "now requires some information from you concerning the frequenters of your mother's establishment." "There are a great many of them, sir," answered Polyte in a harsh voice. "Do you know one of them named Gustave?" "No, sir." To insist would probably awaken suspicion in Polyte's mind; accordingly, M. Segmuller continued: "You must, however, remember Lacheneur?" "Lacheneur?
She had often heard her dear, dead husband say that madame was his benefactress, and now she came to beg a little aid to enable her to open a small drinking saloon. Her son Polyte ah! such a good son! just eighteen years old, and such a help to his poor mother had discovered a little house in a good situation for the business, and if they only had three or four hundred francs Mme.
