Excerpt from The Silver Cord, Vol. 2 of 3: A Story Acting under orders, of the most explicit cha racter, from his imperious mistress, M. Silvain abstained from paying a reconciliatory visit to Adair, lest so prompt an offer of the olive branch should excite the suspicion of the enemy, but the French man sought an opportunity of meeting Ernest as if by accident.' Chance favoured him, and he encountered Adair in one of the roads leading to Versailles, a solitary road, and so narrow that no two acquaintances could pass without recognition. M. Silvain played his little ~part well, and seemed disconcerted at seeing his late antagonist, and as if inclined to turn and avoid him. Adair, however, hastened to hold out his hand, and press it upon the apparently reluctant Frenchman. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
