Should the committee demand a guaranty, I have on deposit with Monsieur de Samoreau a million francs which I intend to use in carrying out these operations. Half of that sum may be consigned to the hands of some one they may wish to choose; the other half will serve to pay the laborers in proportion to their work.
Whence does she obtain further resources?" "From the investments made for her by the Baron de Samoreau." "Without her having to pay a commission of any kind? A most remarkable case of disinterestedness!" "I never have sought to examine the matter particularly," said Henri. "And is that the way you keep yourself informed? A future general-in-chief!"

A propos, General, Monsieur de Samoreau has failed in his negotiations. Mademoiselle Gontier refuses to come to recite at my next soiree!" "What necessity is there for you to make her acquaintance?" demanded Henri. "Ah, that is my secret!"
On entering her dining-room Eugenie took the arm of Lenaieff, placed Henri de Prerolles on her left and Samoreau opposite her in his character of senior member, so that no one could mistake his transitory function with that of an accredited master of the house.
If you ask her, she will come all the more willingly." "You forget that I am not in the diplomatic service, Mademoiselle." "My request annoys you? Well, we will say no more about it," said Zibeline. "I will charge Monsieur de Samoreau with the negotiations." They rejoined the Duchess, Zibeline accompanying her to the vestibule, always evincing toward her the same pretty air of deference.
However, after the next act she made a sign to M. Durand. That gentleman rejoined the Baron de Samoreau in the corridor and took him to meet Zibeline, and a sort of council appeared to be going on in the rear of her box. "What the deuce can she be talking about to them?" said Desvanneaux to his wife. "A new offer of marriage, probably.
Samoreau is at hand, it appears. He played the part of Plutus before; now he will assume that of Bacchus," thought the recreant lover, in order to smother his feeling of remorse. The life of General de Prerolles was uniformly regulated. He arose at dawn, and worked until the arrival of his courier; then he mounted his horse, attired in morning military costume.
"If, on the eve of contracting this happy union, an examination of your conscience should suggest to you some remorse for having abandoned me so abruptly, let me say that no shadow, not even the lightest, must cloud the serenity of this joyous day: I am about to leave the stage forever, to become the wife of the Baron de Samoreau! "Always affectionately yours, "EUGENIE GONTIER."
