"'Ma'm'selle, Ma'm'selle, he say, 'we must meet again! "She thank him and hurry away queeck. Next day we are on the river, and P'tite Louison try to do the Dance of the Blue Fox on the ice. While she do it, some one come up swift, and catch her hand and say: 'Ma'm'selle, let's do it together' like that! It take her breath away. It is M'sieu' Hadrian.
"Felix Marchand'll have much money bad penny as he is," continued Christine in her normal voice. "He'll have more money than he can put in all the trouser legs he has.
