"You have made a good journey, I hope?
I thank you much for the trouble you have taken.
I like the boy's looks; what do you think of him ?" "I like him very much," M.du Tillet said; "he is a new type to me, and a pleasant one.

I think he will make a good companion for the young count." The marquis now turned and led the way into a great drawing-room, and taking Harry's hand led him up to a lady seated on a couch.
"This is our young English friend, Julie.

Of course he is strange at present, but M.du Tillet reports well of him, and I already like his face." The lady held out her hand, which Harry, instead of bending over and kissing, as she had expected, shook heartily.

For an instant only a look of intense surprise passed across her face; then she said courteously: "We are glad to see you.

It is very good of you to come so far to us.
