GENTLY"
The fight became 6ercer-Fournier
hazarded pass. which Dupont taking
advantage Of. pushed him SO vigorously
that he was forced to give back step by
step.
Dupont advanced steadily within dis
lance. cr,ing:
AHA! You run! You run!'
"Not at all. | only retreat. Do you
think | am going 10 let you spit me like
sparrow"
The room is small; | shall drive you
to the wall?"
"We shall see.

This contest would probably have
been prolonged to fatal termination.

been heard by some officers in another
part of the house. who coming hastily up
on the scene. separated with much difi-
Gully the obs mate comb,tants.
! When parted. they each claimed the
victory, and finally demanded, with great
gravity, to be replaced exactly as they
were when separated, Dupont promising
to refx his sword through Fourni.r's
throat without increasing the wound.
They were finally obliged TO force the
latter 10 the bed, and the former out OF
| the chalet.
