"His name is Cantegrel."
"The man who wanted to marry our aunt?"
"The same."
"What brought him to the confessional?"
"His own remorse."
"What were the motives for his crime?"
"There were reports against his character, and he discovered that your father had gone privately to Narbonne to make sure they were true."
"Did our father make sure of their truth?"
"He did."
"Would those discoveries have separated our aunt from Cantegrel if our father had lived to tell her of them?"
