If he wanted to get rid of Camille, it was solely for the purpose of marrying Therese.

It was his intention to bask in the sun, after the crime, like the murderer of the wagoner, in the story related by old Michaud.
He went as far as the edge of the water, and watched the running river in a stupid manner.

Then, he abruptly turned into the underwood again.
He had just arranged a plan.

He had thought of a mode of murder that would be convenient, and without danger to himself.
He awoke the sleeper by tickling his nose with a straw.

Camille sneezed, got up, and pronounced the joke a capital one.
