The period during which the indulgence was to be on sale was eight years. The actual work of organizing the "indulgence-campaign" was put into the hands of John Tetzel, whose large experience in the selling of indulgences fitted him excellently for the post of Sub-commissioner.

The servant who opened the door to them led them to a room in which they found a man of about fifty in the uniform of a sub-commissioner of police. As Colston held out his hand to him he said "In the Master's name!" The official took his hand, and, bending over it, replied in a low tone "I am his servant. What is his will?"

I have it here in my pocket the letter signed by the sub-commissioner at Prince Albert, to whom I told Jan's story when I followed his trail down there the letter which says that the other woman died BEFORE the man who was to be Jan Thoreau's father married the woman who was to be his mother. And NOW do you understand why I did not tell Melisse of this letter, ma cherie?

She became furious, her cap slid down on her shoulder, and she continued: "There is nothing more to be done in that shop now. And what is the name of the new commissioner?" "Bonassot." "'Bonassot-Toulon. Born in 1851. Student Commissioner in 1871. Sub-Commissioner in 1875. Has he been to sea?" she continued. At that question Caravan's looks cleared up, and he laughed until his sides shook.

And what is the name of the new commissioner?" "Bonassot." "'Bonassot Toulon. Born in 1851. Student-Commissioner in 1871. Sub-Commissioner in 1875.

I answered over five hundred questions and rammed home one or two points. For instance, I expressed my disapproval of a system by which a man who is a sub-Commissioner at the hearing on the first term may become the Court valuer on the next.

Now was the time to take formal possession of the territories which he had pacified: the prestige of the whites was at its height, and there were no difficulties to be surmounted. He impressed upon Condamine, whom he wished to be appointed sub-commissioner under a chief at Nairobi, the importance of making all this clear to the authorities.

Already in his own little town, in his speeches, during the war, at the elections of 1871, and especially at Versailles, during the years of struggle and political intrigue, in the tribune, or as a commissioner or sub-commissioner, he had given proofs of his qualifications as a statesman, but the touchstone of man is power.

She became furious, her cap slid down on her shoulder, and she continued: "There is nothing more to be done in that shop now. And what is the name of the new commissioner?" "Bonassot." "'Bonassot-Toulon. Born in 1851. Student Commissioner in 1871. Sub-Commissioner in 1875. Has he been to sea?" she continued. At that question Caravan's looks cleared up, and he laughed until his sides shook.

On each of these days Jan went once, in the afternoon, to the office of the sub-commissioner, and Thornton always accompanied him. At times, when Jan was not looking, there was a hungry light in his eyes as he followed the other's movements, and once or twice Jan caught what was left of this look when he turned unexpectedly.
