When poor Auguste reached the Rue Basse-Saint-Pierre, the doorkeeper told him that he did not know what had be- come of the father of the patient brought in at five o'clock, but that by Monsieur Halpersohn's orders no one — not even her father — was to be allov/ed to see the lady for a week, or it might endanger her life.
This reply put a climax to Auguste's desperation. He went back again to the Boulevard du Mont-Parnasso, revolving the most extravagant schemes as he went. He got home by about... half-past eight, almost starving, so exhausted by hunger and grief, that he accepted when Madame Vauthier invited him to share her supper, consisting of a stew of mutton and pota- toes. The poor boy dropped half dead into a chair in the dreadful woman's room.
Encouraged by the old woman's coaxing and insinuating 192 THE SEAMY SIDE OF HISTORY words, he aoswered a few cunningly arranged questions about Godefroid, and gave her to understand that it was he who would pay off his grandfather's debts on the morrow, and that to him they owed the improvement that had taken place in their prospects during the past week.
