I have no need of a William here nor of anybody else. But even this oasis of a garden, hemmed about as if by the froth of Trouville and the suds of Cabourg; through which floats the gay life of Paris resplendent in toilets never excelled or exceeded anywhere cannot keep me from Holland very long.

Some carried the smallest of the children in their arms, and some were led by hand, and in this way the English lost possession of Bayeux." Concerning Caen and the Coast Towards Trouville Caen, like mediaeval London, is famed for its bells and its smells.

The very next morning, after the rain, and the vision I had had of Madame de Sevigne, conjured up by my surroundings and the reading of her letters, Monsieur Paul paid us an early call. He came to beg the loan of our sitting-room, he said. He had had a despatch from a coaching-party from Trouville; they were to arrive for breakfast.

But while they were bustling about her and asking after her health, Pierre made off, the door having been left open. When his absence was perceived they were all surprised. Jean, annoyed for the young widow, who, he thought, would be hurt, muttered: "What a bear!" Mme. Roland replied: "You must not be vexed with him; he is not very well to-day and tired with his excursion to Trouville."

A man who takes a holiday at Trouville or Dieppe is not confronted on his return with the question, 'When is your book on France going to appear? A man who betakes himself to Switzerland for the winter sports is not instantly pinned by the statement, 'I suppose your History of the Helvetian Republic is coming out this spring? Lecturing, at least my kind of lecturing, is not much more serious or meritorious than ski-ing or sea-bathing; and it happens to afford the holiday-maker far less opportunity of seeing the daily life of the people.

But this mistake, like many another, like crime, for instance, could never be remedied, we smilingly told her; a smile that changed her solicitous remorse to a humorist's view of the situation. Another humorist, one accustomed to view the world from heights known as trapeze elevations, we met a little later on our way out of the narrow upper streets; he was also looking down over Trouville.

"Only to say good-morning, because I am going to spend the day at Trouville with some friends." "But I am still in bed." "Very well, do not disturb yourself. I shall see you this evening, when I come in." He hoped to get off without seeing her, without pressing on her cheek the false kiss which it made his heart sick to think of. But she replied: "No. Wait a moment. I will let you in.

"And as everybody comes here, we decided to come all four together. And your husband, is he here with you?" Madame Desagneaux began protesting: "Of course not," said she. "He is at Trouville, as you ought to know. I shall start to join him on Thursday."

"And you, where are you going?" "I? Oh, I am going to rest up here at Trouville." Then, after a pause, he added: "You have no idea what a fool a woman can be at times!" Daddy Taille had three daughters: Anna, the eldest, who was scarcely ever mentioned in the family; Rose, the second girl, who was eighteen, and Clara, the youngest, who was a girl of fifteen.

A week before Nana had made him promise her a chateau on the Norman coast between Havre and Trouville, and now he was staking the very foundations of his honor on the fulfillment of his word. Only she was getting on his nerves, and he could have beaten her, so stupid did he feel her to be.
