ristes, blanchisseuses, piqueuses de bottines e.
autres, ct je me suis fxe sur i'etat d'institu-
trice, qui est done celui de madame, auiour-
hui ma legitime epouse, ct qui deshonore
mon nom
NJ. lie President.-Vous aveE porte contre
ellie une plainte en- adultere prinitivement,
vous aviez porte egalement plainte contre son
complice, mais vous vous etes d6siste son
egard?
lie mari-Oui, j'ai refechi que, n'etant
pas plus eoupable que les autres, puisque
madame en- une fotte, ca n'etait pas juste
de lui faire payer tous les pots casses.
NJ, lie President, Ia parvenue.-R Recon-
naissez-vous le delft qui vous est reproche
La parVenue, sechement.-Non, monsieur.
M. le President Mais il y un process
verbal constatant le fragrant DELFT
La prevenue.-Les apparences sont SOU
vent trompeuses, bien trompeuses, monsieur.
Quand j'ai epouse Get homme, jai etc from
pee par les apparences ;je me suis dit il n est
pas beau, il nest pas jeune, il ma pas d'edu-
cation, IL ne salt meme pas parler sa langue,
mais il Fair doux, il a sans doute des quail
tes solides." Je me suis cruellement trompee,
monsieur; Get homme est hypocrite, tartufe,
en- dessous, menteur, jaloux..
LIE mari.-Ah! par 'exemple, je ne suis
jamais etc jaloux qua son sixieme, ct encore
parce que tout mon menage y passait. II y
await jamais d'argent la maison malgr6 que
j'en remettais toujours, ct quand je lui disais
qu'elle faisait trop de depenses ayec ces mes
sieurs, ellie me disait que les apparences etaient
trompeuses. C'est son idee de dire que les
apparences sont trompeuses mais quand ca
dure trois ans, me semble quelles ne SON.
plus aussi trompeuses que ca.
La prevenue.-Quelles expressions!
LIE mari.-Oui, oui, il m en- cult asseE d at
voir voulu prendre une savante; son idee,
parce que je ne sais pas bien parler, il aurait
toujours fallu me taire mais moi, je yeux
parler ct je parlerai touiours, vu que je ne
dis jamais rien de trop. :. ST, une fois dams
ma vie, j'en al dit une de trop, c'est cello
davoir dit oui deyant NJ. lie maire.

c'est de Sc mesallier!
Trois temoins sont entendus ct corroborent
les fats rapportes par lie proees-verbal du fla

puissent etre trompeuses Ia prevenue est
