In the boarding-house to which we went at first the "Château du Rhin", a beautiful place overhanging the broad blue Rhine there chanced to be staying the two sons of the late Duke of Hamilton, the Marquis of Douglas and Lord Charles, with their tutor. They had the whole drawing-room floor: we a sitting-room on the ground floor and bedrooms above.
They dined and wined in Amiens at the "Rhin," the "Godebert," or the "Cathedrale," with a kind of spiritual exaltation in good food and drink, as though subconsciously they believed that this might be their last dinner in life, with good pals about them.

It was still not too late, probably, for a messenger to catch him at the Hôtel du Rhin before he left. He was too much a gentleman, she knew, not to consider as unsaid the information she had given him, if she asked it of him. "Pouf!" she exclaimed, with a shrug.
