Librarie Plon, Paris 1893--Pasquier and his wife stopped in Picardy, brought to Paris by a member of the commune, a small, bandy-legged fellow formerly a chair-letter in his parish church, imbued with the doctrines of the day and a determined leveler.

At the village of Saralles they passed the house of M.de Livry, a rich man enjoying an income of 50,000 francs, and the lover of Saunier, an opera-dancer.

"He is a good fellow," exclaims Pasquier's bandy-legged guardian: "we have just made hint marry.

Look here, we said to him, it is time that to put a stop to that behavior! Down with prejudice! Marquises and dancers ought to marry each other.

He made her his wife, and it is well he did; otherwise he would have been done for a long time ago, or caged behind the Luxembourg walls."-- Elsewhere, on passing a chateau being demolished, the former chair-letter quotes Rousseau: "For every chateau that falls, twenty cottages rise in its place." His mind was stored with similar phrases and tirades, uttered by him as the occasion warranted.
This man may be considered as an excellent specimen of the average Jacobin.] [Footnote 32106: "Archives Nationales," F7, 3,207.
