MR.

KNIGHT AND DUTY The pair returned to Kleindorf by the evening diligence, and among the passengers was that same priest who had been their companion on the day of Godfrey's arrival.

As usual he was prepared to be bellicose, and figuratively, trailed the tails of his coat before his ancient enemy.
But the Pasteur would not tread on them.

Indeed, so mild and conciliatory were his answers that at last the priest, who was a good soul at bottom, grew anxious and inquired if he were ill.
"No, no," said a voice from the recesses of the dark coach, "Monsieur le Pasteur has come into money.

Oh, I have heard!" "Is it so?
Now I understand," remarked the priest with a sniff, "I feared that he had lost his health." Then they arrived at Kleindorf, and the conversation ended with mutual bows.
Great was the excitement of Madame and Juliette at the news which they brought with them.
