"She finds that he has a serious and

fairly comprehensive English to the
Marquise d'Esclignac:

the marquise Indignantly. Come,
Mimi! Robert, finish with this creature

laid them side by side. She did not

her a great deal to live on.

He has quite changed. This excur.
sion to Africa has entirely altered him.
He is naturally SO gay" said the Mar

Julia, do you wish to spoil your life
and your chances of happiness? Dc
you wish to mourn for dead soldier
who has never been more than an &C
quaintance? won't even say friend.
What she said sounded logical.

was great lady and stood her ground.
She did not know what the word
"squeamish" meant.
Listening to the mans jargon and
putting many things together, fremont
at last turned to the Marquise d'Es-

gar with her naughty condensation:
'Marraine, he says that Sabron Is
alive, in the hands of natives In GER

says that he has friends in q caravan
