Adelle's interest in the art of jewelry had not ceased, but she was away from Paris this second year so much that her work in Miss Baxter's studio had been sadly interrupted. After her return from the Nile in March, however, she developed anew her passion for making pins and chains and rings, and spent long afternoons in the studio on the Rue de l'Université.
"You have been to see Monsieur Charnot?" "In the Rue de l'Universite. Wasn't it the simplest thing to do? Besides, I was not sorry to make the acquaintance of a member of the Institute. And I must admit that he behaved very nicely to me not a bit stuck up." "And you told him?" "My name to begin with: Brutus Mouillard.
The gamin loves uproar. A certain state of violence pleases him. He execrates "the cures." One day, in the Rue de l'Universite, one of these scamps was putting his thumb to his nose at the carriage gate of No. 69. "Why are you doing that at the gate?" a passer-by asked.

"Here is mine." "But you?" "Oh, I am known." "Where does Marceau reside?" "Rue de l'Université, 40, with his sister, Mlle. Dégraviers-Marceau." "Will you accompany me?" "I shall follow you at a distance, to accompany mademoiselle home when you are gone." "How will Marceau know that I am the man of whom you spoke to him?"
This is the parent-stock of the capital, whence have extended, like so many branches, the numerous quarters by which it is surrounded. L'Universite was bordered by the Seine, the Faubourg St. Bernard, St. Victor, St. Marcel, St. Jacques, and the Faubourg St. Germain. The number of colleges in this quarter, had obtained it the name of Le Pays Latin.
He perambulated all the surrounding streets, the Rue de Lille, the Rue de l'Universite, the Rue de Bourgogne, the Rue Saint Dominique, and even extended his examination to the Esplanade des Invalides, stopping at certain crossways, and measuring distances as he walked along.
Marie reached the Porte de Versailles, at the city's limits, in twenty minutes and dashed through Issy five minutes later. In less than half an hour from the time he had left the rue de l'Université he was under the walls of La Lierre. He looked at his watch, and it was not quite half-past eleven.
