ABSTRACT

BY the break of day, the following morning, Willoughby had left his rustic couch, and joining his host and his family, partook of their simple meal. Hea felt some concern, on reflecting on the panic poor Farnham must have been in, when the guide returned without him to the place of rendezvous, the preceding evening. – He expressed his uneasiness on this head to Le Laurier, who said, he knew the place described, perfectly; and would immediately send thither the son of a neighboring shepherd, who was then employed about his cottage, and bring his servant and the guide to him: in the mean time, he proposed to show Willoughby the chateau of his master; a proposal which his guest readily accepted.
