One fine afternoon in the summer, when I was visiting the President's private apartments in the left wing of Fontainebleau Palace, I was told by the military attache that he was forced to hurry me through the various rooms because, contrary to his usual custom when en vilUgiature, Monsieur Carnot intended to get back to work at an early hour that afternoon. " See there, " said the general, pointing to a huge bundle of papers which was lying on the President's table — we were in his private stud...y at the time — "that is a dossier which has just come in from the Ministry of Justice, the report of the 46 TWENTY YEARS IN PARIS Committee of Pardons on X's petition for :i reprieve. The ' patron ' never keeps such things waiting, and he may be here at any minute to commence reading the papers. It means that he won't dine properly to-night; and very probably when I go to his bedroom to-morrow morning I shall find that he has not gone to bed nor slept a wink all night. He will still be plunged in the reading of these wretched papers.
