As Jean Jacques climbed into his red wagon, Virginie Poucette's eyes were attracted to the northern sky where a reddish glow appeared, and she gave an exclamation of surprise. "That must be a fire," she said, pointing. "A bit of pine-land probably," said M. Fille with anxiety, however, for the red glow lay in the direction of St. Saviour's where were the Manor Cartier and Jean Jacques' mills.
"My good sense would make me think purgatory was hell if I saw him" she nodded savagely at Dolores as she said it, for she had seen that last effort of his to take the fingers of Palass Poucette's widow "if I saw him there, m'sieu' le juge." "We'll have you yet we'll have you yet, Dolores," said the Judge, as the Spaniard prepared to move on.
Palass Poucette's widow leaned forward, and looked intently at Sebastian Dolores, who had stopped near by, and facing a couple of barrels on which were exposed some bottles of cordial and home-made wine. He was addressing himself with cheerful words to the dame that owned the merchandise.
It made his foreign- looking, coarsely handsome face detestable. "Pig!" exclaimed Virginie Poucette's sister. "That's a man well, look out! There's trouble brewing for him. If he only knew! If suspicion comes out right and it's proved well, there, he'll jostle the door-jamb of a jail." Jean Jacques stared after the man, and somehow every nerve in his body became angry.
But for me there would be a wife and three children in the bondage of shame, sorrow, poverty and misery" his eyes again ravished the brown eyes of Palass Poucette's widow "and here again I drink to my own health and to that of all good people with charity to all and malice towards none!" The little bottle of golden cordial was raised towards Mere Langlois.
"She gets her romance and quixotism from Jean Jacques Barbille," retorted the Clerk of the Court. "She does more feeling than thinking like you." Jean Jacques' heart was bleeding, but he drew himself up proudly, and caught his hand away from the warm palm of Poucette's widow. As his affairs crumbled his pride grew more insistent. M. Fille had challenged his intellect his intellect!

He had all at once a sense of hatred. He shook the shoulder against which the man had collided. He remembered the leer on the insolent, handsome face. "I'd like to see him thrown into the river," said Virginie Poucette's sister. "We have a nice girl here come from Ireland as good as can be. Well, last night but there, she oughtn't to have let him speak to her. 'A kiss is nothing, he said.

He was not wholly surprised when Palass Poucette's widow did not show abrupt displeasure at his bold familiarity. A wild thought flashed into his mind. Might there not be another refuge here here in Palass Poucette's widow!
