"Speaking of health," interrupted Saniel, who did not wish to reply, "did you do what I advised about yourself?" "Not yet. The chemists of this quarter are only licensed cutthroats; but I am going this evening to see one of my clients who is a chemist, and he will deal honestly with me." "I will see you again, then." "When you wish, my dear sir; when you have reflected. You have the password."
Saniel shook hands with Brigard, who received him somewhat coldly; then he approached Glady with the manifest intention of detaining him, but Glady had said that he was obliged to leave, so Saniel said that he could remain no longer, and had only dropped in on passing. When they were both gone Brigard turned to Crozat and Nougarede, who were near him, and declared that Saniel made him uneasy.
"It is I who am obliged to Madame Cormier. If the word were not barbarous, I should say that her illness has been a good thing for me." To turn the conversation, and because he wished to speak to Phillis alone, he approached her table and talked with her about her work. Saniel then gave Madame Cormier some advice, and rose to go.
At last, this evening she will have the happiness of announcing to me your visit and your request. But do not make this visit until the afternoon, because then our cousin will be gone." Saniel spent his morning in looking for apartments, and found one in a quarter of the Invalides, which he engaged. It was nearly one o'clock when he reached Madame Cormier's.

Nougarede said that the affair would come on at the second session in April; between then and now Madame Dammauville would be solid enough on her legs to appear before the jury and carry the acquittal. To Phillis, Saniel repeated that the cure was certain, and to her, also, he rejoiced aloud. But he was troubled about this cure.
The arrival of these letters filled the mother and sister with anguish that lasted for several days; and this anguish, that neither of them could dissimulate, angered Saniel. "What would you do if he were dead?" he asked Phillis. "Would it not be better for him?" "But he will return." "In what condition?" "Are we the masters of fate?" "We weep, we do not complain."
She drew a long breath, evidently satisfied to get rid of these subtleties that troubled her. "It is exactly because I admit the possibility of this confusion, at least in part, that I sent for you," she said, "in order that you might establish it." Saniel appeared not to comprehend. "I, Madame?" "Yes.

To turn the conversation, and because he wished to speak to Phillis alone, he approached her table and talked with her about her work. Saniel then gave Madame Cormier some advice, and rose to go.
Saniel, behind the chair, had taken the knife in his right hand, while he pressed the left heavily on Caffies forehead, and with a powerful stroke, as quick as lightning, he cut the larynx under the glottis, as well as the two carotid arteries, with the jugular veins. From this terrible wound sprang a large jet of blood, which, crossing the room, struck against the door.
