The old gentleman sadly shook his head.
"Where shall I find my poor Jean Oullier?" he said. "Since God has preserved him to me I want to see him. I want him to go with me out of this country!"
"Will you leave Souday, father?"
"Yes."
"Where will you go?"
"Where I can hide my name."
"And Mary, poor Mary, who is innocent!"
"Mary will be the wife of the man who is the cause of this execrable crime. I will never see Mary again!"
"You will be alone."
"No; I shall have Jean Oullier."
