The conversation was interrupted. A boy came to tell Fandor that he was wanted on the telephone by someone in the Public Prosecutor's Office.
Later on in the day Jérôme Fandor sent the following express message to Elizabeth Dollon:
"Do not believe a word of the Police Headquarters' version which you will read in this evening's 'La Capitale.'"
This despatched, our journalist commenced his article entitled:
Still the Affair of the Rue Norvins
Police Headquarters takes a view of this affair which is the very reverse of that taken by our contributor, Jérôme Fandor.
By the Seine sewer, the roofs of the Palace, and the chimney of Marie Antoinette, an inspector has succeeded in reaching the Dépôt.
Police Headquarters is convinced that Jacques Dollon escaped alive!
