-THE MASTER OF TREMLAYS" I ? AN HISTORICAL ROMANCE OF THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY. I PART II. I CHAPTER V. (Continued). Jude guessed aright. These ruins were tie *ork of the agents of the King's Treasury, •*conded, it must be confessed, by a few lhntlemeri of the neighbourhood, amongst *holl Herve de Vaunoy particularly dis- tinguílhed himself. ^hen Nicolas Treme was lord of the eounhy these butg were inhabited, and those -10 inhabited 4em were happy, ior i.e, like true noblemar- was kind to his ?nor nc-igh- hoUrs, and as te possessed niore property than all the other gentlemen together, the followed! his good example. Vavnoy, hi. successor, pursued a totally opposite kind ?? oonduct. The small proprietors in. Us ted m> and it was soon on all sides a sytem of ^Ppreasion and attack against .ne unhappy laha.biirants of the forest. The latter at length united in a body. and etied their oppressors. A so"t of guerilla "'a.t" was commenced. it biecaxne evident that the insurgents (for their numbers as well U their grievances forbid us to call them baadits) had a clever and resolute chief whose ^rs -they obeyed implicitly. _le oppressed became in turn. the 7Bsr«8sofs; and one tine mormng an immense ody of peasantry descended upon fteniies, the hOUle oi the King's lieu- From this moment the insurrection acquired a, celebrity throughout the country. Matters remained thus about fifteen years, with diverse successes and reverses for the Wolws, but without the soldiers being able to dis- cover the centre of their operations. For some time the neighbouring gentry had con- eluded a tacit understanding with the forest; and the comptroller-royal, discouraged, had discontinued his eiforte. But Bechameil bad conceived the unlucky idea. of re-commencing hostilities. The explosion was terrible. Almost jovery hut became deserted in one day. The various artisans again assembled in the permanent retreat they had adopted. Three days afterwards the comptroller's house at Rennes was pillaged! The soldiers burnt or destroyed the huts of the Wolves, but the latter found asylum sowe- where, and indemnified themselves for the losses they had sustained. After the cownp- troiier-royal, it was Herve de Vaunoy who suffered most from their depredations. It was in vain that he tried to keep secret his animosity against the Wolves. It was in vain that he secretly urged the pacific Bechameil to act with vigour towards them; the latter immediately revenged themselves. vVawaenr h-ad reomtly suggested that, to utterly destroy the insurrection, it would be necessary to attack the Wolf Pit and' examine the ravine. The next day his manor of Bouexis was devastated from top to bottom. The Wolves, in fact, had no greater enemy than Vaunoy, and they returned him hatred for hatred. It was about eight o'dlock in the morning when Judie arrived in sight of the Forest Cross- 'This spot was held in great venera- tion throughout the country. It was here [ that Nicholas Treme had1 said his last Ave" on quitting the soil of Brittany, which he was never again to see. The old squire dropped upon one knee at the foot of the cross, aaadl prayed. A few minutes after- wards he perceived the cottage of Pierre Rouan, the oharooal-burner. It stood in the centre of a, cluster of beech trees, and its little garden in front was full of flowers. This garden was the domain of Marie. It was she who planted amd nurtured these flowers. She was seated at the door plaiting a honeysuckle basket when Jude approached. "My pretty gie," he said1; "I am seeking the dwelling of Pierre Rouan." "He is my father," replied Marie. I will enter and speak with him," said Jude. "No one enters 'here," she said, quietly; "such is my father's order." My child said a voice within look attentively at that man, %itd never refuse him entrance into thy fathers dwelling." Jude, "wrtionished!. hesfbated to advance. Approach, Jude Lelcer!" resumed the voice. "Welcome servant of Treme, I expected thee." The interior of the dwellling seemed plunged into almost total darkness. Jude paused, a.nd bethought himself who this man could be who knew his name. And this sombre dwelling, might it not conceal an ambush? A second glance at the angelic features of the Flower of the Forest re-assured him. There could be nc treason where she dwelt. He crossed the threshold. There was sufficient light to enable him, after a few seconds, to trace the gloomy outlines of a large room,, whose windows, if there were any, seemed blocked up. A hand met his and conducted him 00 a wooden bench. "Are you Pierre Rouan, the charcoal- burner?" demanded Jude of his almost invisi- ble companion. "I am so called, my man, and I repeat that thou art welcome. I expected thee." "You know me then?" Very likely." "I cannot say that I know you," said Jude; "for I can't see your face." Pierre Rouan ros9 in silence and opened the door. The light fell full upon his blackened features. "No, I don't know you," continued Jude, after he had attentively examined the face. Pierre Rouan returned to his seat. and Jude followed him. "Thou art right," said the charcoal-burner, slowily "thou dost not know me. This I dwelling was constructed Ilong after the departure of Nicolas Treme; but it is not to speak of thee or Ç/lt me that thou hast left the chateau." I "That is true." replied Jude. "As to the motive of thy visit," resumed Pierre Rouan; "I already know it. "The deuce you do'r said Jude, wjith surprise. Thou comest to inquire after an unhappy idiot, called Jean Blanc, in the hope of ob- taining from him some information respect- ing the heir of Treme." "That is true again," -paid Jude, aston- ished. You, who know the sole object of my life, who are you?—in the name of Heaven who are you?" I am Rouan., tlie cliarcoalf-burner," replied Pierre, with simplicity; "a poor man whose life has been sorely tried; a mac who has some benefits to repay, and many outrages to revenge." "And do you know anything of Master George?" asked Jude. "I know nothing," replied! Jude, in a sad tone; nothing more than you, know your- self. Would to Heaven the chateau of Trem- lays had guarded its deposit as faithfully as the oak of the Wolf Pit. Jude started "the oak of the Wolf Pit?" he queried, in a whisper. "The hollow oak of the Wolf Pit," replied Pierre. Jude seizedl the arm of the charcoail-burner and squeezed it convulsively with both his hands. "•Whoever thou art. ttihou knowest too much," he said, in a, low and menacing tone. "Who has told it thee ?" he continued, with a terrible burst. anger. "Recommend thv soul ito HWSSSSfN for thou hast surprised Treme's secret, and thy last hour has come Jude placed his hand upon his sword, but before he could unsheath it Pierre Rouan broke from him and bounded to the opposite side of the room. The click of the pistol did not deter Jude from following him. He rushed impetuously forward, stumbled over the stool, and fell to the ground. In an in- stant the knee of Pierre Rouan pressed on his throat. If thou dost get up again, thou wilt kill ma, -said the charcoal-burner, coolly; "there fore, if thou attemptest to move, I will blow thy brains out." Jude felt the -cold barrel of the pistol press upon his temple. Old age hast not changed thee. brave and loyal Jude," resumed Pierre; what dost .thou snppose, man, I want with thy secret? If the hundred! thousand livres had tempted me, would they still be in the hollow oak?" "That is true," said poor Jude, far the third time; "but stilll I do not know thee." "Perhaps thou never wilt. At all events, I have let thee see that I am a friend of Treme. "I an at your mercy," murmured Jude. Heav<sn grant that you are really a friend of Treme. Pierre Rouan removed his knee and Jude rose. "Tal}& t'hy sword," said the charcoal- burner I have confidence in thee, although thoti hast made thyself a, valet of a French- man, and an enemy of Brittany and mine." "He is noble and good," said Jude. "He is noble and good after the French fashion," said Pierre Rouan, bitterly; "and, therefore, feels no shame in deluding a poor girl with protest'Siions. But I will be. revenged upon him sooner than he expects. Let us speak of Treme." Jude sheathed his sword and they resumed their seats. You are generous," said Jude; for I roughly handled you. I will not. therefore, inquire how you became possessed of our master's secret. In your hands it is safe; I have confidence in you. Wilt shake hands "With all my heart, man. Jean Blanc, who is, I may say, my second self, has oft spoken to me of you. You were merciful and kind to one who needed it. Believe me, friend Jude, 'he is grateful, and may one day return your goodness" "Poor fellow; let him return to Treme," said Jude. "He has done what he could for Treme," said Pierre Rouan, sorrowfully. Doubtless; but unhappily it was out of his power to do much." "It was so formerly, because he only knew how to return good for good. He has since learned to return evil for evil, and has be. come powerful." He is no longer an idiot ?" demarded Jude. Heaven sometimes sends men such severe trials that it drives them mad; these shock? restore idiots to their senses. Jean Blanc is no longer a fool. "And does lie remember facts that occurred long a.go 1" asked Jude. i He remembers a,ll exclaimed Pierre. "I must see him, tlien," replied Jude. An imperceptible twitching agitated' the features of Pierre Rouan. See Jean Blanc?" he said- m a strange voice; "rest satisfied my man with interrogating me, and do not attempt to join him." "But Ih.8 can o-ive me important parti- culars," replied Jude. Not more than I can he has often opened his heart to ine. Listen I will relate to you the dastairdly assassination at the pond of Trenvlays." Pierre Rouan fthen mfhiutely related! the horrible murder Vaunov had been guilty of upon the person of a child five years old, the grandson of his benefactor. He spoke a long time, and Jude listened with eager attention. The death of Job drew a tear from the old man's eye; and when be heard that Jean Blanc had plunged into the pond and saved the child, "May Heaven reward the idiot 1" he exclaimed. Pivrre resumed his narrative. On arrfrinig at- the access of dieJirium which seized Jean Blanc in the forest, he abandoned the child, and when he returned there was only the coat of rabbit skins,the usual dress the idiot Blanc wore at that jwriod. He fell upon his knees—he prayed to Heaven —he wept tears of blood said Pierre Rouan, with a suppressed sob; "and when he speaks of that fearful evening, he still weeps, for the remembrance of Treme lives at the bottom of his heart." But why did he not search and inquire in every direction ?" (To be continued).
