"Thérèse," she called, "it is your bed-time. It is very late, darling." The child obediently left her game, said good night to the Baronne de Vibray and President Bonnet, and last of all to the old priest, who gave her a paternal embrace. "Shall I see you at the seven o'clock mass, Thérèse?" he asked. The child turned to the Marquise.
Thérèse promised, and the two young people left the drawing-room. "A pretty couple," remarked the Baronne de Vibray, adding with a characteristic touch of malice, "you mean to make a match between them some day, Marquise?" The old lady threw up her hands protesting. "What an idea! Why, Thérèse is not fifteen yet." "Who is this Charles Rambert?" the Abbé asked.
Presently a voice became distinguishable, the voice of Valgrand singing a refrain from a musical comedy. The Baronne de Vibray hurried to meet him, with both hands outstretched, and led him into his dressing-room. "Let me present M. Valgrand!" she exclaimed, and then presented the two young women to the bowing actor: "Comtesse Marcelline de Baral, Mme. Holbord."
