Not , in. so many words; but

•'And you would have aceepted
him? How about 'me?"
I had no hopes of your keening

er sadly', "I have been disappointed
again and again."
-Why did you leave London when I
wished you to remain there?"'
"There was nothing more to be
done- I had served you as you
wished. Why should I continue my
bateful slavery with that horrible
woman?"
-And you preferred Paris to Lon -

on the point of speaking to the Mar-

jaw fell, lee turned at once on his

"Saperlotte, it is strange!" mut-
tered the Marquis between his teeth.
"What fly has stung him, I wonder?
there must be danger near," and
with that he stole a furtive glance
at his companion on the bench, a
glance which M. Jobard bore with
imperturbable self-possession.
"Come, Panchette, I must know
what this means," went on the Mr -

came alongside, Carapata said excit-

"Don't speak to me. Pass on;
