I I want you to know, Zotique, that I have not tried to act underhanded. It all happened between us so suddenly, and so so " "Yes, I understand; don't worry about it, Vital," he interrupted, in a tone which eased Vital's heart more than any words could have done. They sat ever so long without speaking.
Once Xiste Brin said to me, 'Monsieur the Director, you have a good heart. Deign to accept my professions, monseigneur, of a loyalty the most solemn, of a breast for ever faithful." "I have always accepted your friendship, Benoit, and trusted you," smiled generous Haviland. "See here, Zotique, give Benoit a responsible post.
The meeting now resumed its discussions. "We require strategy!" asserted a burly, red-haired lawyer from the City. "I confess myself in favor of strategy," admitted Zotique also; "I am always in favor," said Chamilly, "of the strategy of organized tactics, of the avoidance of useless by-questions, and of spirit and intelligence in attack and defence."
There was a short and certain answer. Which then of Haviland's friends supplied Spoon with money for these only too obvious processes of vote-obtaining. It was not the Honorable, it was not De La Lande, it would not be penurious Benoit? "Ah, well," Chrysler thought, "I am here but to observe. Am I not under obligations to Zotique, if it be he, which prevent my interfering?"
Finally Zotique said quietly, "My coming back was all a mistake, Vital; I never thought you cared for her in that way; you were always so quiet and absent-minded that I misunderstood you." He paused for a few moments and then went on unevenly: "After I get back perhaps not just at once I will write and tell her how fortunate she is." The Faith that Removes Mountains.
But Zotique himself was not to escape quite scot-free, for when Chrysler stopped next day at his office, as he was getting accustomed to do, he found him in one of his excitements. "Ah, good day, sir. Come in and take a seat Àa-a-créyé, how they enrage us!" and he cast an impatient glance on the floor at a large envelope deeply marked with his heel. "What is the matter?" Chrysler queried.
Cajoling, ordering, opening bottles aside and treating, volubly greeting everybody in his strong voice all day, he seemed to have raised supporters for his party of whom no one would have dreamt except Zotique; but the little closet up in the attic satisfied the requirements of strict logic.
A series of combined assaults by episcopal summons, a pulpit crusade, excommunication, refusal of burial, encouragement of dissensions, and the establishment of rival Institutes bearing names such as "Institut Canadien Français," most of which existed only on paper, finally succeeded in crushing the movement." "Ac" ejaculated Zotique.
Haviland had added the fatigues of the last night to weeks of wearing labor, with consequences at length upon his fund of spirits, and also plainly on his face. He felt, like Grandmoulin, that his battle was principally with De la Lande in the back of the county, cheering up his ranks. About two o'clock Zotique drove over to Miséricorde alone.
At sunset of the day before the Election, Chamilly came over very tired from the Institution and ordered tea to be brought out on the lawn. Little Breboeuf sat with them; the visiting politicians also; and last, least, and highly delighted at the honor, Francois Vadeboncoeur dit Le Brun. To-morrow is the election day. "How do we stand, Zotique?" Chamilly asked, with some air of fatigue.
