The Companions of Jehu

CHAPTER XLVII
12/16

Here they entered the town through the market-gate, and followed the Rue de la Revolution, the Rue de la Liberte, and the Rue d'Espagne, since called the Rue Simonneau.

There Roland ensconced himself in a corner of the Rue du Greffe and waited.
The captain continued on his way alone.

He went down the Rue des Ursules (for the last seven years called the Rue des Casernes).

This was where the colonel of dragoons lived.

He had just gone to bed when the captain of the gendarmerie entered his room; in two words the latter told all, and he rose at once and dressed in haste.
When the colonel of dragoons and the captain of gendarmerie appeared in the square, a shadow detached itself from the opposite wall and came up to them.
