M.Moriaz scarcely had reached there, when he entered a carriage to drive to Cellarina, provided with a portfolio given him by Antoinette.

He found M.Larinski busy strapping his trunks, and waiting for the mail-coach that made the journey between Samaden and Chur by the Col du Julier.
M.Moriaz expressed his regret at having missed his visit, and asked if he would consent to charge himself with a commission for his daughter, who desired to send to her godmother, Mme.

De Lorcy, a sketch of Saint Moritz.
"Cheerfully," coldly replied Count Abel, and he promised, so soon as he reached Paris, to send the portfolio to Maisons Lafitte.
"Do better than that," rejoined M.Moriaz, "and carry your good-nature so far as to take it yourself to its address.Mme.de Lorcy is an amiable woman, who will be charmed to make your acquaintance, and hear from you of us." The count bowed with a submissive air.

There was so little ardour in this submission that M.Moriaz queried if his daughter had not been dreaming, if M.Larinski was as much in love with her as she fancied.
He had not read the anonymous letter; Antoinette had refrained from even mentioning it to him.
He was returning to Saint Moritz, when he met midway a pedestrian, who, lost in thought, neither looked at him nor recognised him.

M.Moriaz ordered the coachman to stop, sprang out of the carriage, went up to the traveller whom he seized by both shoulders, exclaiming: "What, you! you again! I can go nowhere in Grisons without meeting you.
I ask as I did at Chur, 'Where do you come from ?'" "Did you think I would stay there forever ?" rejoined M.Camille Langis, reproachfully.
