Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Jack, Vol. 2 "Come, Jack, one round more." "No, thanks, Monsieur Chariot. I am not in the habit of drinking. I am afraid of its hurting me." The Nantais laughed: "What next! A Parisian like you - you are joking. Hi! you barman, two glasses more stiff and look sharp about it!" The apprentice dared not refuse. The attentions lavished upon him by so great a man flattered him hugely. And with good reason indeed. The designer usually so haughty and so proud, who in the past eighteen months had not spoken three times to him, had, on meeting him by chance this morning in Indret, done him the honour of addressing him as a comrade, of taking him to the public house, and of treating him to three glasses of differently coloured spirits. This was so extraordinary that Jack at first felt some distrust. The man´s manner was so strange, he asked with so much persistence: "Anything new at the Roudics? nothing really?" The apprentice thought to himself: "Ah! if you think you will get me to do your errands like Belisaire!" But this evil impression did not last long. After the second round of spirits, he felt more at his ease, more reassured. After all, this Nantais did not seem such a very bad fellow; he had been more unfortunate than wicked, led astray by his passions. Who knows? Perhaps, to bring him back to the right path, he needed only an outstretched hand; perhaps a friendly word would be enough to induce him to give up play and to respect his uncle´s household.
