the entire etat major.
Sabron, indeed, looked we'll. He
was thin, deeply bronzed by the ex,
posture on the yacht, for he and Ire
mont before returning to France had
look of man who has come back
from far country and is content.
And never shall forget to the end
of my days how Monsieur lie Capitaine
looked when l met the yacht at Mar
seilles!"
Brunei spoke reverently, as though
he were chronicling sacred souvenirs.
Il said to myself, you are about to
welcome back hero, Brunei! Mon
sieur lie Capitaine will be as weak as
child. But l was determined that
Monsieur lie Capitaine should not read
my feelings, however great my emo
ton"
Sabron smiled. At no time in his
simple life did Brunei ever conceal
the most trif1ing emotion--his simple
face revealed all his simple thoughts
Sabron said heartily: Your control
was very fine, indeed"
Instead of seeing a sick man, Mon
sieur le Capitaine, splendid-lOoking
figure, with red cheeks and bright
eyes, came off the boat to the shore
| said to myself: Brunei, he has the
air of one who comes back from vic
tory No one would have ever be-
lieved that Monsieur lie Capitaine had
been rescued from captivity"
Brunet's curiosity was very strong
and as far as his master was con-
cerned he had been obliged to crush
1t down. To himself he was saying:
Monsieur ID Capitaine is on the eve
of some great event When will he !
announce it to me? l am sure my
master is going to be married"
Pitchoune from chair near by,
assisted at his masters toilet, one
moment holding the razor-strop be-
tween his teeth, then taking the
clothes brush in his little grip. He /
was saying to himself: Il hope in
the name of rats and cats my master
Is not going out without mel"
Brunei was engaged to be married
to the kitchen maid of the Marquise
d 'Esclignac. Ordonnances and soul
lions are not able to arrange their
matrimonial affairs so easily as are
the upper classes.
Monsieur lie Capitaine," said the
servant. his simple face raised to his
masters, II am going to be mar
