Le Vicomte. " " But you are not clad in the garments I discarded after our duel : you seem to have done with the role of de Championnet. " ** Entirely, " he returned. " I have come here in my own right as Silvain de Cheverny, to denounce you to Mademoiselle my cousin. " ^' Will she believe you ? " " I shall claim Cheverny, " he said. " How can you. Monsieur, with no pardon to show?" " You will give it back to me, " he implored. '' Perhaps, " I answered, *' but not until it suits me to do so. Wh...en I am ready to make my adieux to the chateau — when my business here is complete, — I may have time, Monsieur, to think of restoring to you your passport to your freedom and demesne. But what would become of Mademoiselle Aurelie if THE FACE AT THE WINDOW 155 I gave you the means of taking possession of the chateau in which she has spent her young life ? How do I know you would behave as a gentleman of honour ? " *' If there is any truth in the gossip of maids and lacqueys, M. Le Vicomte has such an admiration for Mademoiselle that he would prefer to remain here as her husband, under my name, " murmured Silvain, with a light laugh which maddened me.
