But to his amazement and chagrin La Tour d'Azyr parried the stroke; infinitely more to his chagrin La Tour parried it just too late. Had . he completely parried it, all would i bave yet have been well. But strik- . Ing the blade In the last fraction of a pecond, the Marquis deflected the . point from the line of his body, yet not so completely but that a couple ‘ of feet of that hard-driven steel tore through the muscles of his sword-arm. - To the seconds none of these de- tails had been visible. All that they '“ had seen had been a swift whirl of flushing blades, and then Andre- Louis stretchéd almost to the ground ~In an upward lunge that had plerced the Marquis' right arm just below the shoulder. » The sword fell from the suddenly . relaxed grip of La Tour d'Azyr's fin- gers, which had been rendered pow- . erless, and he stood now disarmed, . his Up in his teeth, his face white, his Z.chest heaving, before his opponent, whe had at once recovered. With - the blood-tinged top of his sword rest- ing on the ground, Andre-Louis sur- “ veyed him grimiy, as we survey tle . prey that through our own clumsi- > mess has escaped us at the last moment. In the Assembly and in the news- papeérs this might be hailed as an- cther victory for the Paladin of the Third Estate; only himself could —— e ALL THAT THEY HAD SEEN FLASHING BLADES. know the exient and the bitterness o!lhunds of his own son, an intelligent | the failure. 1 Andre-Louis at last roused himseif, | slghed, and turned away to resume his garments and left the ground at once. | As, with Le Chapelier, he was walk- ing slowly and in silent dejection toward the entrance of the Bols, where they had left their carriage, they were passed by the caleche con-| “wveying La Tour d'Azyr and his| second. And thus it was that he *was the| first to return, and seeing him thus| returning, apparently safe and sound,| the two ladies, intent upon preventing | thé encounter, should have assumed| that their worst fears were realized. | Mnié. de Plougastel attempted to| call out, but her voice refused its oftice. She attempted to throw open | the door of her own carriage; but her fingers fumbled clumsily and ineffec- tively with the handle. She found her volce at last, and at the same moment signaled to the drivér of the caiche to stop. “Mademoiselle de Kercadiou is with me. The poor child has fainted.” | Moved by a deep solicitude for Mademoiselle de Kercadiou, de La Tour d’Azyr sprang up despite his wound. 7 And thus it happened that. when'd few moments later cabriolet overtcek : -and. - passed . the| halted vehicle, Andre-Louls beheld a | very touching scene. ~Standing up to obtain a better view, he saw Aline fn a balf-sweoning condition—she was at approaching effect that when the Constituent was dissolved in September of the. follow- ing year, membership of the Legisla- tive, whose election followed Immedi- ately, was thrust upon him, Of the counter-revolutionary trou- bles, none were more acute than those of Brittany, and, in view of the in- fluence it was hoped he would wield in his native province, it was pro- posed to Andre-Louis by the Commis- sion of Twelve, In the early days of the Girondin ministry, that he should g0 thither to combat the unrest. He accepted the task, and he was one of the five plenipotentiaries dis- |patched on the same errand in that | spring of 1792, from Paris for four months and might have kept him longer but that at the ihh:inninr: of August he was recalled. | Mlle. de®Kercadiou, too, was in | Paris in those days of early August, lon a visit to her uncle's cousin and dearest fgriend, Mme. de Plougastel. In early August there arrived |the Hotel Plougastel {from M. de Kercadiou through whom | he urgently bade mademoiselle join {him at once, and advised her hostess | to accompany her. M. de Kercadiou was of those who | make friends with men 3,‘ all classeg. |In Mepdon he was known and es- teemed of all the simple folk, and it | was Rougane, the friendly mayor, who informed him on the 9th of August of the storm that was brewing for the { morrow, The friendly mayor carried his.com- plaisance a step farther, and dis- patched the letter to Paris by- the at .

The sergeant in command strode to the door of thg vehicle. The Coun. | tess put her head from the window. “Your name, madame?”’ he had asked brusquely, “Plougastel,’” he repeated after her, without title, as if it had been the name of a butcher or baker. He took down a heavy volume from a shelf on his right, opened f{t and turned the pages. It was a sort of directory of his section. ‘“Comte de Plougastel, Hotel Plougastel, Rue du Paradic. Is that it?" “That is correct,” she answered. There was a long moment of silence, during wkich he studied certain pen- clled entries against the name. “The barriérs are closed to all who cannot prove the most urgent and satisfactory reasons for wishing to pass. You will wait, madame, until the restriction is removed.” Rougane's astonishment turned inte dismay when they told him what had taken place. “A passport from without would do equally well,”” he announced. “I will go back to Meudon at once. My father shall give me two permits— one for myself alone, and another for three persons—from Meudon to Paris and back to Meudon. I re-enter Paris with my own permit, which I then proceed to destroy, and we leave to- gether, we three, on the strength of the other, representing ourselves as Meudon in the course of the day. If I go at once, I shall be back tonight.” “But how will you léave?” askéd My father is Mayor of There are plenty who know him. They will pass me through. It is quite simple.” His confidence uplifted them again. The thing seemed as easy as heé rep- resented it. ““Then let your passport be for four, my friend,” madame begged him. “There is Jacques,” she explained, in- dicating the footman who had just as- sisted them to alight. Rougone departed confldent of soon e Meudon. Pooh! with the same confidence. But the | hours succeeded one another, the night closed in, bedtime came, and still there was no sight of his return.
