ferment of Paris which, dur
ing the two following days, resembled
an armed camp rather than a city,
delayed the burial of Bertrand des
Amis until the Wednesday of that
eventful week. Andre-Louis succeed
ed to the fencing-school in which he
was himself so well established as an
instructor.
And so, one fine day in early Aug
ust, he received a visit from Le
Chapelier.
“I have news for you, Andre, Your
godfather is at Meudcn. There have
been fresh disturbances in Brittany.”
Not until Sunday was Andre-Louis
able to satisfy a wish which the im
patience of the intervening days had
converted into -a yearning. Dressed
with more than ordinary care, his
head' elegantly coiffed—Andre-Louis
mounted his hired carriage, and drove
out to Meudon.
It was into the presence of a peev
ish and rather somnolent M. de Ker-
cadiou”that Andre-Louis was ushered.
He was unannounced, as had ever
been the custom at Gavrillac.
"What do you want here?” growled
M. de Kercad-iouis-.
"No more than to kiss your hand,
monsieur my godfather,” said Andre-
Louis, submissively, bowing his sleek
black head.
"You can’t. You’ll never males me
understand how you came to render
yourself so odiously notorious in Brit
tany.”
"Ah, not odiously, monsieur!”
"Certainly, odiously. It is said even
that you were Omnes Omnibus, though
that I cannot, will not believe.”
"Yet it is true.”

June when the news of Necker’s dis
missal spread, carrying with it dis
may and fury.
He beheld a slight young man with
a pock-marked face leap to a table
outside the. Cafe de Foy, a drawn
sword in. his hand, crying, ‘To arms!”
And then upon the silence of astonish-
men that cry imposed, this young man
poured a flood of inflammatory elo
quence.
Enthusiasm swept the crowd, a
motley crowd made up of men and
women of every class, from vagabond
’ to nobleman, from harlot to lady of
fashion.
'’Andre-Louis looked on, and grew
afraid. This crowd, he felt, must be
restrained. That hot-blooded , irre
sponsible stutterer would have the
town in a blaze by night, unless some
thing were done. The yo-ung man,
Camille Desmoulins, later to become
famous, leapt down from his table
still waving his. sword, still shouting,
"To arms! Follow me!” Andre-Louis
advanced to occupy the improvised
rostrum, and came suddenly face to
face with a tall man beautifully
dressed.
Thus face to face, each looking into
the eyes of the other. Then Andre-
Louis laughed.
"That fellow, too, has a very dan
gerous gift of eloquence, M. le Mar
quis,” he said.
“Gallows-bird!” he “was answered.
"I shall tell the Lieutenant-General
that you are to be found in Paris.”
"My God, can!’* chied Andre-Louis.
"Will you talk like that of Lieutenant-
Generals when Paris itself is likely
to tumble about your ears or take fire
under your feet?’*

"Oh, and to be sure you were very
