Meantime another band of insurgents had attacked the house of the vicar-general, John Pebereau, whose body pierced by seven stabs of a dagger was thrown out of a window, the same fate as was meted out to Admiral Coligny eight years later at the hands of the Catholics. In the house a sum of 800 crowns was found and taken.
Let me write to him, and say that my nephew has had the honour of being presented to you, and that you hoped he might have a wealthy abbey to enable him to bear the privations of his calling." The young vicar-general was good-looking, and of graceful presence.
You have gained your action, and paid him," said Madame de Watteville, watching her daughter, who, all the time the Vicar-General had been speaking, seemed to hang on his lips. The conversation changed, and no more was heard of Albert Savaron. The portrait sketched by the cleverest of the Vicars-General of the diocese had all the greater charm for Rosalie because there was a romance behind it.
"Injury to religion, madame!" exclaimed the vicar-general. "Religion is too lofty for the actions of men to injure." "Then, monsieur," she replied, "let us endeavor to bring the judgments of men into harmony with the judgments of God." The Abbe Troubert suddenly changed his tone.

Rudolph, having thus secured these valuable provinces, took possession of them as fiefs reverted to the empire, and issued a decree placing them under the government of Louis of Bavaria as vicar-general to the empire, in case of his death or during an interregnum.
They all smiled at the Vicar-General as they passed, and ranged themselves on one side. The Silent Angel stood very close to the Vicar-General. As the people came near, the priest felt his vestments grow light upon him, as if they were lifting him in the air. They shone very brightly, too, and took on a new beauty. The Vicar-General felt glad that he was wearing them.
The priest cast a distress rocket in a look at the Vicar-General; but the Vicar-General perfidiously smiled and looked away. Up spoke Norah, her sweet voice not quite steady, her cheeks crimson but they all heard her: "It's a large gold watch. Why can't we give it to Father Kelly?" The Vicar-General's lifted hand stilled the shout that rose. "Why not?" called he.
At a ceremonial dinner given in honor of I know not whose wedding, at the beginning of September 1834, when the women were standing in a circle round the drawing-room fire, and the men in groups by the windows, every one exclaimed with pleasure at the entrance of Monsieur l'Abbe de Grancey, who was announced. "Well, and the lawsuit?" they all cried. "Won!" replied the Vicar-General.
