Of course I may have been deceived. I didn't hear her speak. Do you think she was a cook? 'I didn't know any one ever rode in the Sentier des Contrebandiers. 'Oh, for that, I give you my word of honour. A lady or say a female in a black riding-habit; dark hair and eyes; very pale, with red lips and things. Oh, I'm not trying to impose upon you.
Returning to his game, along the rue de Sentier, he stopped at Giroudeau's newspaper-office to notify him of the gala. By six o'clock Philippe had won twenty-five thousand francs, and stopped playing at the end of ten minutes as he had promised himself to do. That night, by ten o'clock, he had won seventy-five thousand francs.
He soon learned that it was only in financial transactions that large fortunes were to be rapidly made. He left the Rue du Sentier, and found a place at a stock-broker's. His keen scent for speculation served him admirably. After the lapse of a few years he had charge of the business.
The next day, about four o'clock, Philippe went to the rue de Sentier, where he found Giroudeau in the entresol, caged like a wild beast in a sort of hen-coop with a sliding panel; in which was a little stove, a little table, two little chairs, and some little logs of wood.

He saw the chambermaid leave the house and soon afterwards he, on a plea of business, went out, hurried to Rue de Sentier, to the address indicated, and awaited the arrival of his rival at the house of a friend who was in the secret of his stratagem.
Otherwise, how could she have found the Sentier des Contrebandiers? She wasn't from Granjolaye? 'There's no one at Granjolaye save the Queen herself. 'Deceiver! Manuela told me last night. She has her little Court, her maids-of-honour. I think my inconnue looked like a maid-of-honour.
Unhappily, he has not left in the Rue du Temple his present address, and I do not know where to find him." "If that be all, I can remove the difficulty." "You know where he lives?" "Not exactly; but I know where you will be sure to meet with him." "Where is that?" "At a notary's, where he is employed." "At a notary's?" "Yes; who lives in the Rue du Sentier."
"Madame begs that you will take this to the house of M. Adolph; now, be quick about it."
