M de Treville received him as if he had seen him that same morning; only, when pressing his hand a little more warmly than usual, he informed him that the company of Dessessart was on duty at the Louvre, and that he might repair at once to his post.
M. de Tréville le reçut comme s'il l'avait vu le matin même; seulement, en lui serrant la main un peu plus vivement que de coutume, il lui annonça que la compagnie de M. des Essarts était de garde au Louvre et qu'il pouvait se rendre à son poste.
