Montigny, a village even more queer than its
neighbor, but boasting of q pottery where
vessels in the simpler manner of the Limoges

parallel to a river, the narrow stream which
is the chief of the charms of Gree. All the
gardens lead to the rivers edge, and it is in
the rear of the houses that one finds the
social gatherings. This fact accounts for

There are between 100000 and 100000
