A REPUBLICAN MARRIAGE By Qo\j Mason lovely countenance of the fair Helene as she drew bridle at the cross roads which separated her estates from the municipality of Angers, Maine et Loire. That section of the country was comparatively quiet, and heard but subdued mutterings of the distant storm. -As the lady hesitated over her choice of roads, a ragged peasant accompanied by two children, whose tattered garments scarcely concealed their nakedness, approached her prancing steed. He held a soiled paper, blackened at the folds, in his gnarled and knotted hands. THE Countess Helene de la Croix swayed her slim body gracefully to the caracoling of her horse, while her cousin Cyril looked on admiringly. She was indeed fair to look upon with her white skin and great dark eyes, and the gaily clad group of servants riding at a respectful distance followed the glances of the young seigneur. It was early in the troublous year of 1789, the year of the fall of the Bastille. Sanscullotism was flaming thruout the land, and the Eepublican guard was already organizing. But no trace of care appeared on the IF THE GRACIOUS LADY PLEASES, THIS IS NAUGHT BUT A LITTLE PETITION WHICH GIVES US LEAVE TO ORGANIZE." 93
