‘You must try to find out where that wedding-party went
to.’
‘Where it went?’
‘Yes.’
‘I know.’
‘Where is it going then?’
‘To the Cadran-Bleu.’
‘In the first place, it’s not in that direction.’
‘Well! to la Rapee.’
‘Or elsewhere.’
‘It’s free. Wedding-parties are at liberty.’
‘That’s not the point at all. I tell you that you must try
to learn for me what that wedding is, who that old cove be-
longs to, and where that wedding pair lives.’
‘I like that! that would be queer. It’s so easy to find out a
wedding-party that passed through the street on a Shrove
Tuesday, a week afterwards. A pin in a hay-mow! It ain’t
possible!’
‘That don’t matter. You must try. You understand me,
Azelma.’
The two files resumed their movement on both sides of
the boulevard, in opposite directions, and the carriage of
the maskers lost sight of the ‘trap’ of the bride.
