Not for a second was Andre -Louis

about him. He was grievously dis-
appointed. It was not Chabrillane
he had been expecting.
But if Chabrillane was the man
appointed to deal with him, he would
make the best of it.
"I think you are pushing against
me, monsieur," he said, very civilly, 1
and with elbow and shoulder he
thrust M. de Chabrillane back into
the rain.
Now, for • all his slenderness, his
assiduous daily sword -practice had
given Andre -Louis an arm of iron.
Also he threw his weight into the
thrust. His assailant reeled backward
a few steps, and then his heel struck
a
haulk. of timber left on the ground
by some workmen that morning, and
he sat down suddenly in the mud.
A roar of laughter rose from all
who wituees the fine . gentleman's
downfall. He rose, mud -bespattered,
in a fury, and in that fury sprang
at Andre -Louie.

"You shall meet me for this!" he
spluttered. "I thall kill you for it."
"Whenever you please, monsieur.
It is fee you to say when it will suit
your convenience to kill me. I think

"To -morrow morning in the Bois.
Perhaps you will bring a friend."
"Certainly, monsieur. To -morrow
morning, then. I hope we shall have
fair weatl:era. I detest the rain."
Chabrillane looked at him almost
with arnazoniert. Andre -Louis smiled
pleasantly.
"Don't let me detain you mosv, mon-
eleur, We quite understand each
other. I shall be in the Bois at nine
c'eleek to -morrow morning."
In the morning, when the Assembly

He had not long to wait. Carne a

violently round. He was brought face
