Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Provincial Life, Vol. 10 The next morning Lucien had his passport visaed, purchased a holly stick and on Place de la Rue d´Enfer took a van, which, for ten sous, carried him as far as Longjumeau. He passed the first night in the stable of a farm two leagues from Arpajon. When he had reached Orleans he was already very weary and footsore; but a boatman took him down the Loire to Tours for three francs, and on the way he spent only two francs for food. He consumed five days walking from Tours to Poitiers. When he had gone some distance beyond Poitiers he had but a hundred sous, but he summoned his last remaining strength to continue his journey. One night, being overtaken by darkness on a level tract, he had determined to bivouac there, when he spied a caleche crawling up a hill not far away.
