"And where are these passes to be procured?"
The registrar turned frightfully pale, and stammered, "Where are they to be procured, you ask?"
"I inquire where are they to be procured?" replied Dixmer; "the question is plain enough, I think."
"They are procured—here."
"Ah! true; and who usually signs them?"
"The registrar."
"But you are the registrar?"
"Certainly I am."
"Oh, how lucky that is!" said Dixmer, seating himself, "you will sign me a pass."
